    condensate water is lot like pond scum water. there are tables to put in the drain pain of a home AC coil to fight the sludge buildup, I've considered tossing 1 or half of 1 in to see if it helped keep the drain clear (probably will not help with insect)

    Attach a reducer fitting to your shop vac and then to the drain hose.

    Often the problem is in the case and the entrance to the hose will be blocked by stuff moving around.

    Anyone have a photo of the drain hose and location? Mine seems to be leaking on the passenger floor board higher up than where the drain would be.
