The act of cooling air also removes humidity, which causes condensation. Just like a window unit on a house does on a humid day, your car's air conditioner causes condensation as warm humid air passes over the cooling element (the evaporator). Your car should have a drain tube somewhere underneath where this fluid normally drips out - you can see the puddles on the ground from your car and others at a stop light, usually. This drain tube is almost always on the passenger side or near the center of the car. It's usually around 1/2 inch diameter, and may or may not have some kind of baffle on the end to keep misc stuff from entering.
If you have water dripping inside your car, there are two basic causes. One is a plugged drain tube, which is very common (because no one ever cleans those things). Figure out where the A/C drain tube is on your car, and you can probably clean it out with a chunk of wire or something like that. There's probably info online with a quick search. The other related problem is that you may have a crack somewhere in the evaporator housing allowing the condensation to drip out before it gets to the drain tube. This may or may not be exacerbated by a plugged drain tube. Again, where this could be located is dependent on your specific vehicle.
A competent mechanic should have no trouble helping track this down, and from a cost perspective, it should not take more than an hour or so to resolve a plugged drain tube. If you have something broken in the interior, it could be much more expensive to fix, as it may be anything from a simple repair to something which requires disassembling the entire dash (which could be close to a full day's work in the worst case).

Do betta fish shed?
If you are using tap water for the bowl without conditioner parts of the betta will start to "shed". If you aren't using conditioner then I recommend to go to a pet store and get "betta fish conditioner" that protects against tap water.
Can you use tap water to spray the hermit cage down?
You can use tap water but need to add a water conditioner t the tap water before spraying. This conditioner removes the chlorine from the water and is available at your local pet store. I prefer using distilled or purified water because it leaves less scale buildup on the inside of the tank glass.
How do you clean air conditioner condenser on a ford f250?
The inside of the air conditioner condenser can be cleaned by removing the hoses and running water through the condenser. Run water through the condenser until the water exiting the condenser is clear.
Why does your Whirlpool window air conditioner sound like running water but no water appears on the walls beneath it?
The air conditioner drips condensation inside the unit. There is a drip pan inside the unit that catches this water, the water then drains to the back of the unit which is a compartment that houses a fan and a condenser coil. The fan slings this water on the condenser coil which helps to condense and cool the refrigerant.
Is a leaking air Conditioner bad for you?

How did the Romans get the water inside the Roman Colosseum?

What would cause a central air conditioner to make a dripping sound in the inside unit and leak water?
When air is cooled the water in it comes out (like mist forming on the outside of a class filled with cold coke) and this happens in the air conditioner. Normally the dripping water is drained way to the outside (or a drain) by a pipe. If the pipe gets blocked the water will overflow and the conditioner will leak water - get it serviced.

In a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell causing it to shrink or undergo crenation. As water exits the cell, the pressure inside the cell will decrease.
Is betta water conditioner safe for goldfish?
Yes, your betta water conditioner should be a standard water conditioner that can be used in any fish tank.
How does one clean a window air conditioner while in the window?
Remove the filter from the air conditioner, and clean it using soapy water. Then take the grille off the conditioner and clean inside with a medium bristled brush. Be careful not to damage the fins, and clean in the same direction that the fins run, not across them. One may then use a specialised mould cleaner to spray on the fins, and leave this for about 20 minutes before pouring warm water onto the fins. This should be done with caution as electricity and water can be fatal to both the machine and the person! Blot off excess water and wipe down the fins. Reassemble the air conditioner. If one can remove the base of the air conditioner, then do so and this can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner.
Do you still need to put conditioner in the tank for a betta fish with filter already?
Yes, definitely. The conditioner not only keeps your water quality great, but it also dechlorinates the water, which is necessary for any fish to survive. If you are using distilled water, then you do not have to dechlorinate it, but if your water is from the tap or is chlorinated, then you must dechlorinate it. Also, a quick word of advice: Check to see if your conditioner also removes chloramine! Chloramine is toxic to fish, and some water conditioners do not remove it. Only purchase the best water conditioner.
