Install aircond condensation pump lor...

Usually back to back wont have this problem since water just flow out nicely. Those that this problem usually want aircond in a nice place, but far from wall, thus require long drainage pipe but water stagnant in pipe create algae/slime.

My aircon previously has the same issues as well. What i do for is to buy some drain unclogging tablets from daiso and put 1 piece in the drainage like once a month. It helps to clear the gel from the pipes.

Agree, one .more thing to add is you must get the sifu to do deep cleaning.

Not just any ah beng general worker from the hardware store will do otherwise 1-2months time will clog & aircon will leak water again. Happen to.my parents aircon. Had to finally get the sifu to do deep cleaning then only problem solved.

Try asking your neighbours/colleagues if they know any good aircon technician

The gel is called aircond jelly, it is made of bacteria, mold, dirt and dust. There is no easy way to get rid of it, you will have to deep clean the entire unit. Once a year should be sufficient, more if your place is particularly dusty ie lots of stuff in the room. Trophies? Toys? Books? Collectibles? Anything that increase the 'surface area' that could be covered in dust and can't be cleaned regularly contributes to the dust build up.

Sorry, I currently don't know any good.aircond technician as old one sudah retire for quite a while for bukit antarabangsa area.

For the last few times I had to use hardware store service but lucky they sent a more experienced guy instead of noob & I just needed refill gas regular servicing.

Even then can't exactly recommend them for more serious issue as when brought new aircondfrom the store. Within a month new aircond leaking & call them to fix. Each time would start leaking afterabout a month plus & they couldn't fix it. In the end had to exchange with a new one.

Mind you, the reason got a.new aircond was the old one keep on leaking every 3 months plus & don't got sifu anymore & had to rely on hardware shop technician.

Yurp full cleaning service once a year or once in every 8 to 9 month, plus turn on air purifier also will be good for us and the aircond itself
