I have central air and in the unit in the basement it has begun to leak all over the floor. It seems to be coming out the bottom of the unit. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :(

The drain is clogged that lets the condensate (condensed humidity) go out. You should see a plastic pipe connected near the air conditioner pipes on the indoor unit. It would be the drain. There are 50 ways to connect it and there is usually a backup drain too. Some techs prefer to connect both together and some don't connect the backup at all. You will have to clear it out by using a wet vac or anything you can to clear the clog in that drain pipe.
