We just installed a packaged YORK AC/heater on the roof. I noticed that cold air is blowing out of one of the lower corners of the AC unit while the AC is running. The air blowing out is cold and not just cool not cool. The air is blowing out one of the square holes in the base of the unit. Is this a problem and how do I make it stop? I'd rather not try to cool the entire neighborhood, even if there is a heat wave.

This is the unit:

The air is coming out one of the square holes in the base along the bottom of the unit. The air is not coming out under the same corner as the DRAIN hole. Maybe it;s just a bad ducting job.

The duct came loose where it attaches to the AC. A 2 minute fix.
