Bedroom AC condensation

Running just the front or bedroom ac have condensation dripping from both outlets in bedroom. Fan was on high. Can you just run this one ac without the other?? Outside temp 85 and humidity 90 in Florida. Thermostat set on 72. It was not raining.

Nothing about that sounds right! Hoping someone chimes in for you on this! You should be able to run one or the other with no issues.

Sounds like the drain holes on the AC unit itself were not drilled. One of my friends has a new Big Country that had this same issue. I believe Dometic has a service bulletin out about it.

Each AC can be run independently. When you say "both outlets" are you referring to the ducted returns? If so, I'm thinking it has something to do with the AC's drainage even though it was not raining. You can search for mine and other's posts re that issue on this site. Take photos to show your dealer when/if you take it in for warranty work.

The water is coming from the cold air "output" ducts in bedroom not the air return thru the filters. Running both units yesterday no water but cooler weather and felt less humid. I will search for the Dometic service bulletin. The last warranted visit will be next month so keeping a list. But, as always, you need some advice and info before discussing with dealership. Thanks,

That's good and it may have just been the previous day's high humidity. I had the same issue in a previous FW, especially in SWFL.

Sounds to me like a drain issue!

Maybe it froze the coils which is typical in high humidity with the lack of airflow.
