Questions about a ductless mini split leaking are common. But the issue is often very easily fixed. Let's hear what Dan Danowski has to say about it.
Judith asks, "Why is my Ductless Mini Split leaking?"
"Hey Dan, my ductless mini split leaks water inside the house and down the wall. A lot of water. The unit is set on cool mode at 75 degrees. It has done this three times now. The water in the drain hose seems to be full of water. I shake it to get it out. It seems to suck what's left back up the hose. What can I do to fix this?"
The issue for your ductless mini split leaking seems pretty straight forward. The drain hose is probably not angled downward properly. You definitely shouldn't have to shake it to get the water out. It also shouldn't get sucked back up the drain hose.
You might need to fiddle with it a little bit, though. The water drains out because of gravity. So the drain always needs to be going downward. If for some reason you can't do it that way, like you have to go up over something to get the drain hose out of the house, then what you need is a condensate pump. Condensate pumps go inside the air handlers on mini splits and they pump the water out. That's why they are called condensate pumps.
