If you do not have a central air unit, but you have window air conditioner, make sure that these are taken care of properly as they will allow water to run under them to sit on the window seals. This water will cause the window frame to rot if it is wood or rust if it is metal and your windows will likely eventually leak. Each fall you need to move these out some to check the window frame and if it is bad you will need to fix this. When you put it back in you might want to put a seal around this unit so that this does not happen again.
The destruction from these units are unnecessary and if the damage becomes to bad the repairs will have to be done immediately. The water coming off of these units is contaminated, so the damaged materials will also have to be removed and disposed of properly. The water will do damage to the unit its self and in some cases you have to buy a whole new unit and this alone will run you into a lot of money. Even small units are very expensive to replace. These units contain things that only licensed professionals should work on. Make sure that the person you use to make repairs to your central unit is certified and licensed..
Have this unit checked every year. They will come out and completely check and clean this unit so that it will work the whole season, hopefully problem free. You might have it checked between the short time of spring when the weather is not too hot or before you have to turn on for heat in the winter. Most of these units are used for both of these seasons so you will need to make sure that it is going to run right whether it is electric or gas.
