Yes, it is quite common for air conditioners to produce and occasionally leak water under certain conditions. During the normal cooling and dehumidification process, moisture from the indoor air collects on the cold evaporator coils and drips into a condensate pan, from which it is safely channeled outside through a drain line. However, leaks frequently happen when this normal drainage path becomes obstructed by dirt, dust, algae growth, or rust buildup, causing water to overflow and spill out into your living space. Additionally, low refrigerant levels can cause the coils to freeze over; when the ice eventually melts, it produces an excessive volume of water that overwhelms the drip pan and leads to noticeable indoor leaks around the air handler.
