A:Answer Thanks for reaching out, CherKel. This AC is equipped with a drainage hole located at the bottom of the unit. When the appliance is installed properly, any water collected will simply drain from the AC. Also, note that the noise level varies based on the setting. A low setting will produce 55 dBA, a medium setting 56 dBA, and a high setting 58 dBA. If you have any more questions, let us know. ~Keyanna
