A/C Leakage into coach

I have a 2018 29V Precept. On two occasions, I have had water dripping from the aft A/C vent in the bedroom while the A/C was running. No leakage from the front A/C. Anyone else experienece this problem? Solution?

This is a huge problem!! Water leaking in thru your AC can cause thousands of dollars in damage. The AC mounting bolts are loose, the flashing may not have been installed properly and the seal may not have been properly installed. We had all three problems and under warranty Jayco paid an independent RV shop 4k to have the water damage removed and the bedroom restored to OEM condition and the AC properly installed with the mounting bolts tightened to the correct torque.

Another possibility is a stopped up drain under the Evaporator pan. You did not mention the make/ model of your AC.

There are threads on JOF that may assist you in determining the problem. ex,: https://www.jaycoowners.com/forums/f...ips-19659.html

Also YouTube.

The condensate drain is designed to run onto the roof on a Precept.

What exactly is the correct torque for those mounting bolts?
