My hvac guy told me to basically put a cap of bleach in it every time I change my filter and he recommended for where I live to change my filter every month.
So i been in my home 4 years and today just seen this changing my filters i got 100 towels 😂 dried it up and the condensation underneath the system so i have to do this to FIX the problem????
Our instruction manual state use 1 cup of vinegar. Vinegar is all I’ll use.
Or you can use one cup of white vinegar once a month.

@@m-cw7er I was told that the water needs to be hot. Is that your understanding?
I’ve been getting condensation on my AC lines and even all the way to the duct work. My AC company checked it and said that everything is fine and this is normal. My AC lines on the inside of the house have been dripping water. Is this normal ?

Clean the air filters that are on the inside part. Don't put them wet inside
*Vinegar
Our furnace is linking water underneath. The air conditioner man came out. He told us that we needed a water pump. He told us. Instead of letting water run down the pipe. Like it was doing. He will connect the pipe fm furnace. Run pipe outside the furnace. Run it into the bathroom. So it can be drained into our toilet. I do not lk that idea. Will this mess up my plumping? Thanks

Bleach is very bad for your evaporator coil, those fumes will work their way up into your evaporator coil and that is a very expensive problem to fix, please don’t do this. Use an enzyme based condensate treatment.
NO BLEACH!!!

Vinegar! Gasses from bleach will reverse and come back up where the bleach was poured in.
