AC Leaking Water in Kissimmee, FLTop causes, real repair costs, when to replace instead
Water dripping from an indoor air handler is nearly always a drain line problem: a clogged condensate drain backs up, overflows the pan, and drips into the ceiling or closet. In Florida's humidity, clogs happen every 1–2 years. Clearing the line runs $150–$450. Catch it early before drywall damage.

Why ac leaking water happens in Central FL homes
In order of frequency based on thousands of service calls in the Central FL region — the most common issues first. Your Kissimmee technician will diagnose the real cause in under 30 minutes.
Clogged condensate drain line
Algae and biofilm build up in the PVC drain line. A service tech clears it with vacuum and nitrogen. $150–$300.
Rusted or cracked drain pan
If the pan under your coil is rusted, water can't drain properly. Replacement pan: $300–$600 installed.
Frozen evaporator coil thawing
Massive water drip right after the system was shut off means the coil froze and is melting. Diagnose the freeze cause or it'll happen again.
Broken condensate pump
Systems in attics or closets with no gravity drain rely on a small pump. Pump replacement: $200–$400.
