FAQs: Condensate Management & Drip Trays

What size drip tray should I choose?

Measure the outdoor unit’s base (width × depth) and select a tray with a footprint that fully supports the feet or frame. If you’re between sizes, go larger for better catch and stability. You can browse common sizes in our AC drip tray collection.

Do I need a condensate pump or will gravity drainage do?

If you have a clear, downward fall to a compliant drain point, gravity is fine. Where fall isn’t possible—balconies, long horizontal runs, or higher drains—a small pump can move water quietly and safely. Our quick maintenance tips in this DIY AC cleaning guide also help reduce blockages that force pumps to work harder.

How do I stop slime and odours forming in the drain hose?

Keep the pan and coil clean, flush hoses periodically, and use approved drain treatments during humid months. See trade-size options in Air Conditioner Cleaning Chemicals.

Can I install a drip tray myself?

Most trays are DIY-friendly: position under the unit, secure the outlet, and route the hose to a suitable drain point. For strata or commercial sites, check local rules and engage a licensed tech if in doubt.

What’s the best way to route the hose from a balcony unit?

Keep the run short with a consistent fall to a compliant drain. Avoid tight bends and protect the hose from UV and foot traffic. If fall isn’t possible, consider adding a quiet lift solution and a service loop for maintenance access.

How often should I maintain the tray and drain line?

At least at the start of summer and again mid-season in humid regions. Wipe the tray, flush the hose, and clean the coil and pan. Step-by-step tips here: DIY AC Cleaning for Aussie Conditions.

Will a square tray fit my outdoor unit?

Most residential condensers have a square or near-square footprint, so a square tray gives stable coverage and neat hose routing. Check your measurements and compare against sizes in the collection.
