Eagle 339flqs air conditioner leaking?

Have a Eagle 339flqs leaking water through the cold air inlets in the ceiling. If heavy rain it comes in through the cold air ceiling foam filter area. (both sides) There is a Grey Foam around front part of roof a/c and appears the a/c is tight to roof. The drain tray holes are clean and the condenser coils are clean also. The interior of the ceiling has no a/c access to look at the coils from the interior(ceiling covered}. There is no warranty on this unit. Looking to see, if someone else has had this problem. looking for the step by step fix. The leaking appears through the intake vents, when the trailer is elevated to hookup or when detaching from TV.

Air conditioner leak problem found and fixed

The A/C problem that was leaking water from the cold air intake grilles in the ceiling. Was caused by poor workmanship and cheap parts on installation of the 15k whisper quiet air conditioner unit. The small #8 screw that was 3 1/2" in length was broken on installation. The screw was rusted at the break and the gasket/seal was not down tight to the roof (1/2" to 3/4") from bottom of a/c unit. Replaced the gasket kit with a oem RVP Coleman kit and used galvanized lags to hold the unit. Replaced all (4) screws and used silicone by Novaflex to seal the tops of the lags. It has rained for several days since the repair was done and no leaks. Problem solved. Words of advise to owners with the whisper quiet a/c units, i would check out to confirm that you have the proper seal on your unit or units.
