You can check drip pan level by removing air return grill (filter) and reach inside.

Basic roof top A/C Unit



If it continued to leak vs just when you shut off and it's raining THEN it could be roof gasket....hold down bolts (4 under ceiling grill assembly) could be loose

Tighten by hand then SNUG then down 'X' pattern with wrench...but only SNUG

(SNUG is actually 40 INCH lbs.....NOT FOOT LBS----INCH LBS....very small torque wrench OR just SNUG)
OLD-BISCUIT thxs for the drawing and I bet with the quality I've had so far since I've picked bought this unit back in April I bet they forgot to put drains in the evaporator drain pans in both A/Cs since this is where the water is draining out inside the MH. I also note that both are draining on the outside so I'll assume that both A/C base drains are working properly. Of course called the service dept. Manager directly at CI in Kingston and as usually u can never get through so left several VMs so far on his phone and no call back same old story so I'll have to contact the GM once again. It's an hr. drive for me so too far just to show up. I could probably fix it myself but some just got to get done by them.
