Water coming down the spout into the drain bucket sticks to the bottom of the spout by surface tension and dribbles over past the edge of the bucket and drips to the bottom of the unit and to the floor. You don't have to open up the unit, take the bucket out and put a o-ring or rubber band around the spout a little past the cut in the bottom of the spout to cut the surface tension.
