goodman CACFO48B2A small puddle of water

[illpapa2k15]

just want to know what to do to track down a small leak in this high efficiency heater that leaves a puddle on the right side of the unit on the floor. checked hoses to condensate cup already they seem clear of debris

I believe that is the model number for the cooling coils. If it is, and the leak shows in cooling, the water is either blowing off the coils, the condensate pan is cracked or the drain line is clogged and the pan is overflowing. If it's a high efficiency heater, there's a lot more places, if it leaks during a call for heat. Any of the hoses could be cracked, the hoses could be routed incorrectly, one of the plugs for the unused drains could be leaking, the unit could be out of level, etc. If it is leaking during heating, disconnect power, pull the cover, and the model and serial is probably inside the unit. You might even find the installation manual, which might help.

I recommend turning the unit on allowing it drip then take off the panel and with a flash light track down the leak it is hard to find leak if it's not leaking. Leaving the area dark will make it easier to find the leak with a flash light. Just as Alamo says those are the only areas I can think of off hand to cause a leak, maybe making sure the unit is leveled along with the drain.
