No, you should not continue using your air conditioner if it is actively leaking water. Running an AC with a water leak indicates that your condensate drain line is clogged, your drain pan is cracked, or your evaporator coils have frozen over and are melting faster than the drain can handle. Continuing to operate the system will cause water to overflow continuously, leading to extensive structural water damage, ruined drywall, warped flooring, and potential electrical short circuits in your air handler. Verification: Turn the thermostat to "Off" and clear the clogged drain line with a wet-dry vacuum before restarting.
