it says not to drill any holes in it. And says *innmanual* do not remove the sub base water drain plug (rubber piece over a hole in the back ) it says it will drain the water out if the back if it gets to high (obviously it’s meant to contain a certain amount of water at all times ). It’s designed so the fan (above this drain hole plug will shoot the water from the base pan at the condenser keeping it cool. And (achieving longevity ) I assume. It’s my first summer with this. It’s the 6000 btu model same features. Same design. I’ve never owned one with a rubber drain plug that you can pop out at any time , also in recent years I’ve never had to “Tilt” a unit out my window in about a decade. (Didn’t really answer sorry but I remove the plug randomly ) if thats how yours operates too the case with your unitt and you don’t want any water on the ground ,Drain the base water into any kind of bucket Hope I find similar info
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello! Thank you for reaching out with this excellent question. The drain plug in the bottom of the unit can be removed and replaced to drain the water from the unit when needed. Please know that removing the plug will lower the efficiency of the unit, so we do not advise leaving it unplugged. More information can be found on page 14 of the use and care manual. We hope this clears things up for you! -Elliot@GEA
