1989 Land Yacht

Have a leak from the overhead A/C unit. Water dripping onto table from snow build-up this winter. Pan and drip hose ok, any other ideas? Roof just redone and sealed

Is that a Motorhome?

Check the gasket that is between AC and roof.
If tension bolts are too tight it will compress gasket too much and leave a gap.

Water will often get in from rinsing coach. Water will go through cooling vents top side.

Also, A/C will tend to condensate and drip from shroud in coach.

I had the same problem with my 1989 TT. You probably will have to have the AC removed and have a new gasket installed all well as the drip pan. My AC was the original and I was having cooling problems also and the outside shroud was busted. I decided to have the AC, drip pan, and drain hose replaced.

Replace gasket seal

Ours leaked in rain and condensated onto floor.. Had A/C removed and replaced 14" square rubber gasket seal and problems solved... Another clue is little black rubber bits blown out of A/C when fan or unit turned on...
