The name of the built in air cond. unit is Fujitsu Halcyon inverter. It is about 7 years old so the warranty is likely expired.
The temp here is about 80F.
Tell me that there is no chance of condensate if the air cond is not on but could happen after turning off?
What are the solutions here? Does it mean the unit is getting inefficient if it drips too much?
Some condensate is normal right?
What is the solution for getting rid of the water so avoid dripping below?
Thanks in advance,
Guy

It can drip for sometime after it has stopped running. Condensate is normal and means the unit is dehumidifying the air. As far as a solution, get longer tube/hose and pipe the drip somewhere else, like a flower bed.
