“I just bought this unit and it has liquid coming from the side. Is that supposed to happen? Am I supposed to add water or anytime the unit?”

That liquid looks like water and it's very possible that that is normal if it is very hot and/or humid outside and you have the AC running hard/constantly. I had a few high heat and humidity days some which felt 100+ outside and AC's were dripping/draining, especially those with the sun beaming directly on them. And no, you're not ever supposed to add water to the AC!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi - Thank you for choosing this GE air conditioner for your home. As part of the normal air conditioning process, humidity is removed from the room and collects in the base pan. If you're finding moisture/condensation dripping inside the room, please double check to be sure the unit was installed with a 1/4' tilt to the outside per Page 11 of the Owner's Manual. This allows the excess moisture that collects in the base pan to run towards the back of the unit where it can drip (in high humidity environments) outside. You do not need to add water to the unit. If the unit is dripping on the outside of the room, this is normal and no cause for concern. All our best! Vikki@GEA
