Living with a mini split in Lost City

Summer in the valley: humidity and bugs

The Lost River valley is green and humid in summer, and that moisture keeps a mini split’s drain system busy all season. A slow condensate line, algae in the drain pan or a blower wheel starting to grow mold usually shows up first as a drip or a smell, often on the hottest week of the year.

Outdoor units in the country also attract insects. Wasps and mud daubers build in sheltered corners, and ants are drawn to electrical components. We check for those during the outdoor portion of the visit, along with the coil, fan and line set. A spring visit, before you lean on the cooling, is a good habit here.

What to watch for in Lost City

  • Wasp or mud dauber nests in or around the outdoor unit
  • A sour smell when cooling starts in late spring
  • Water dripping down the wall under an indoor head
  • Gurgling or bubbling sounds from the drain line
