Following this simple instruction will prevent any water issues. Please don't damage your A/C by drilling holes in it. I've owned a very similar model for about five years, but am happy to report that this current model (which I've installed in another room) is even better: nice controls, strong fan and cooling capability, and quiet.

The ac installed easily in an existing sleeve that was through the wall. Much more efficient than the old ac, cools well etc. Rating: 5 / 5 It was a great deal since the shipping was free.

During a heavy rain this spring, we had rainwater rolling into the family room via the wall insert. We first blamed the new wall insert, but on closer examination found the A/C itself collects rain water; the bottom of the A/C has no drains at all. Once the water is high enough in the A/C unit, it has nowhere to go but into the house. <br /> <br />I drilled a couple of holes in the bottom of the unit...that should take care of things. <br /> <br /> Rating: 2 / 5 Unit was installed late last fall.

Perhaps I was not careful enough because the difference was one character in the model number but what I received was the 220 volt version which meant I had to have a new 220 line installed or return the shipment -- which was impractical (teh unit weighs nearly 100 pounds.
