Discovering a puddle of water around your HVAC system can be stressful, especially during the peak of summer. If you are suddenly dealing with indoor flooding and asking yourself, "Why is my AC leaking water?" you are not alone. Air conditioners naturally produce moisture as they pull humidity out of the warm indoor air.
