That was 2 1/2 years ago, it was just fixed last month!! Then we got a wet spot from our A/C too in our hall. Happened twice. Danny fixed whatever was wrong with the a/c & last month the spot got fixed. So would that be number 3 for me too!!!

It has been leaking into a sandbox pail. LOL We are back home after being gone all afternoon. It is just stifling in here. We are going to have to turn the air back down for a short while and get this place cooled down. I hope the repairman is here closer to 9 than 2!<BR/><BR/>KelliKellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12959889019639336499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-1153961467398458622006-07-26T19:51:00.000-05:002006-07-26T19:51:00.000-05:00Kelli, I have been having the same problem.

Does your air conditioner have a pipe for the condensed water to run outside? You know how a window air conditioner leaks water, I guess ALL of them leak, but it has to have somewhere to go. Our son ran a snake up into the pipe that comes to the outside.It poured the water. I think our pan had just run over since it didn't have anywhere else to go...it came down through the ceiling. Since he opened up the pipe, it hasn't leaked any more. Now to fix the brown spot on my white ceiling.Clara....in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07111947670369158947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-1153951765535715442006-07-26T17:09:00.000-05:002006-07-26T17:09:00.000-05:00oh not fun !oh not fun !Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505042214124811641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-1153948864845570702006-07-26T16:21:00.000-05:002006-07-26T16:21:00.000-05:00There is at least one vent fan in the attic alread...There is at least one vent fan in the attic already, working full-time, but it was still 136.5 Fahrenheit when I checked it.<BR/><BR/>It's *possible* that we just need a fresh charge of whatever freon substitute they're using these days, and that the unit is working so hard it's "sweating" until that's done.

They have a paint that has the texture stuff already in it that you can use to do it. That's what we did when a portion of our ceiling collapsed (our house is over 75 years old and has never been remodeled!).Susan Godfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17270826218826775730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-1153937008828514202006-07-26T13:03:00.000-05:002006-07-26T13:03:00.000-05:00Oh no, Kelli!

That might solve the problem for the future. I am so sorry you have had all this trouble. I hope it gets fixed and quick.Marcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00837798938089334872noreply@blogger.com
