Air conditioner dripping.....
We have a tenant in our brownstone who has been experiencing dripping from the air conditioner in the apartment above him on to his air conditioner. Any advice about how to attend to this issue? Thanks!

Last season I bought a foam pad with a magnetic backing that totally deadens the noise of the drip. I bought it a Greshlers Hardware on 5th ave. It was large enough to cut for two units.

Often there is a place to attach a length of rubber tubing so that the water directed elsewhere. Or you can use a small plastic funnel, attach McGuyver-like to the bottom of the unit, then a rubber hose to that.

if they tip the a/c back very slightly, the drip will prob stop. Works like magic 80% of the time. Otherwise, go to the hardware store and tell them you want one of those tubing for an a/c drain. You slide it over a little opening at bottom of a/c (pretty obvious where it is when you look) and direct the agua elsewhere. happy summer.

we had the same thing happen, and we just placed a small, old hand towel on top of our A/C. So, all drips were absorbed into the towel and the dripping sound became muffled.
