[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 307262, member: 4264"] is there a small hole or crack in the tray section on the bottom where the water builds up before dripping out the back? This could cause it to pool forward depending on the spot with the problem. My S/O can't imagine anything else that would cause your issue, other than perhaps due to humidity, the water is condensing so much from the AC working extra hard and it isnt' draining fast enough out the back??? He suggests checking it for cracks or a small hole somewhere that you can see visually. If you can't see a problem, he suggests putting something under the front end to tilt it even more. I know mine has been tilted and pooled out the front when I haven't tilted enough. Hope you get it working better. To save your carpet, keep a large towel or old piece of heavy clothing stuffed under the front end to soak the water up and then rotate with another, so you can clean the first one when it soaks through. A true pain I'm sure, but worth it to have the AC running in this humidity, and much easier than trying to replace a carpet if the underlay gets moldy from the water. [/QUOTE]
