AC evaporation drain?

MiamiAGMiamiAG Member Posts: 210 ✭✭
Hi,

290ec here. Does anyone know if the AC has an evaporation water drain to a thru-hull or does it drain into the mid bilge?

Thanks,

    I do not have AC but I after being on here for a while and reading AC posts I beleive that while the pump has a thru hull the evaporator pan does not, it drains to the mid bilge. But many have  re-routed it to the shower sump box.

    On my 280EC, it drains to the bilge. I have thought about rerouting it to the shower sump, but I have not done that yet. It should be a 5/8" line.

    Thanks. I'm wondering if this is what is causing my mid bilge to run daily. My shower box does fill with water so it may be routed there.

    Down here in South Florida, my AC is running almost constantly during the day.
