Howdy, Y'all.

Thank you to all who replied to our plea for help RE: the front AC
ceiling grill dripping water onto the carpet.

Jack forced about 10 ft. of coaxial cable up the drain tube slowly and
carefully. When he pulled the cable back out, there was no water
draining out. Then he went back up on the roof, carrying a pint of
water in a squeeze bottle with the idea of getting some sort of flow
going in that tube. HOWEVER, when he removed the AC cover, all of a
sudden(and I was watching the catch bucket on the ground) water just
poured out of that tube like a cow on a flat rock and into the bucket.
He yelled down to me that he didn't put the water in, yet. WOW.
Somehow he unblocked that tube. Then he put about a pint of water and
chlorine bleach solution down that tube also. Vooschhhhhhhhhhhh. Put
cover back on and came down off of roof.

About 1/2 hour later, I checked the drain tube catch bucket and there
must be about 1 gallon of water in there. And this took care of the
condensate running across the roof and down the side.

Thanks again to all that replied.

Regards,
Liz

Just a guess here Liz but could the AC cover have been crimping the tube and
when Jack removed the AC cover the dam burst so to speak

Howdy Rob.
Jack says no. He feels that he loosened the blockage with the coax.
When he walked across the roof, the blockage in the tube was jarred
loose. This AM, the catch bucket was absolutely full. Jack used that
water to water the plants.

OK, I'll bite. How exactly DOES a cow on a flat rock pour? Different
than on a bumpy rock?

"How exactly DOES a cow on a flat rock pour?"

A cow doesn't pour, she pi**es.

A cow can empty her bladder in an amazingly short time period.It's an
old expression used when something, especially a liquid, goes
everywhere. I'm 69 and it was around when I was a kid.

Pour has been substituted for slang word, as in, "Pi**ed
Off", "Pi**ing match", or, "Pi**ing away the time",

I do not know if there has been a study on a bumpy rock, but I would
assume it would go everywhere also.

It is not in the pour but in the bounce.
A flat rock creates close to a 360 degree shower that catches everyone
nearby.
Bumpy rocks tend to create a shower in only a couple of directions
that can be avoided if seen coming.
At least that's what I remember and I'm sticking to it.
