Where is the condensation drain on this unit? null

Hi there, Dskman. Good day! The Frigidaire FHWW084WD1 8,000 BTU Window Room Air Conditioner does not have a traditional, manually accessible drain plug. Instead, it utilizes a self-evaporative system where condensation is either evaporated or drained out through a built-in drainage system. Condensation Drainage Overview: Self-Evaporative Design: This unit is designed to minimize the need for manual drainage. Condensation that accumulates during cooling is typically evaporated or drained automatically. No Removable Drain Plug: Unlike some other models, the FHWW084WD1 does not feature a removable drain plug for manual drainage. Installation Considerations: Proper Tilt: Ensure the unit is installed with a slight tilt (approximately 1/4" to 1/2" or about 2° to 4° downward to the outside) to facilitate proper drainage and prevent water accumulation inside the unit. Maintenance Tips: Regular Cleaning: Keep the area around the unit clean and free from debris to ensure optimal airflow and drainage. Check for Blockages: Periodically inspect the exterior drainage area to ensure there are no obstructions that could impede water flow. If you notice water pooling inside the unit or leaking into your room, it may indicate an issue with the drainage system. In such cases, it's advisable to contact Frigidaire customer support or a qualified technician for assistance. - Maico
