Default A/C Leak

My A/C is leaking condensation water into the passenger side floorboard. Anyone else have this problem? Is it a small fix like a loose hose or something worse? I haven't had a chance to look up under the dash yet, but any info is appreciated. Thanks.

There is a condensate drain hose that exits the condensor/heater core housing. It's close to the middle of the bottom of the firewall. You'll have to crawl under the vehicle and look for it. If it's clogged, the condensate could back up into the air ducts and empty onto your floor. Blowing compressed air into the hose may clear the clog, but whatever clogged the drain to begin with will still be in there. Ideally you would remove whatever is necessary to inspect the housing and remove the offending debris. Also check your cabin filters to make sure they are intact and not allowing any debris into the air handling system.
