    I have a 3370 persuit just bought it . It has 10000 btu Domenic AC installed but the water does not drain and gets spill over cabin . I have check everything possible already . The only things is in my mind now is that is not install in the proper location because of there is not a proper level of elevation to drain by gravity . Does anyone knows where this AC should be installed ? There is not much room right now is in one of the compartments (left side is standing in front ) under the sit at the cabin’s table. The hose drainage hose goes from there to the mid hull section of the boat where there are two bilge pumps . Any ideas please ?

    Welcome to the Forum Ruben.

    Have you carefully checked the drain hose to make sure that it is going 'down hill' the whole way from the air con unit to the bilge compartment?

    If the hose can't drain outside by gravity there are two possible solutions. Drain into the bilge and let the bilge pump take care of the condensate, or have a sump pump.
