How do you drain an AC drain line?

Published in AC Maintenance 1 min read

To drain an AC drain line, follow these steps, based on the information available:

  1. Turn off your AC unit. This prevents any further condensation from forming while you're working.
  2. Locate and detach the drain line. Find the drain line, usually a PVC pipe, and detach it. The reference mentions unscrewing screws at the base.
  3. Flush the drain line. Connect a hose to the open end of the drain line.
  4. Run water through the hose. Allow water to flow through the hose for several minutes, or until the water runs clear, removing debris and clogs. This creates water pressure that helps dislodge any blockages in the drain.

By following these steps, you should be able to effectively drain your AC drain line.
