Why does the outside drain of an air conditioner keep dripping water?
It has to drain the condensate buildup somewhere... Some drain directly into the homes plumbing and only drain outside the home when the inside line has plugged up, like an overflow pipe.
Why would an air conditioner leak water?
The evaporator coil is very cold, which causes water to condense on it's surface, like how water condenses on a cold soda can. The water runs to a drain pan at the bottom of the coil and then flows outside your home via a drain pipe. If water is leaking around your furnace, you very likely have a clogged drain pipe or cracked drain pan and should have it fixed immediately. However, if you have a heat pump and you see water around the outdoor unit during the winter, this is normal.
What happens to the water in the bottom drain pipe after winterizing an in-ground pool?
During prper winterization, the water in the bottom drain is usually "blown" out with compressed air. How this happens, is that a pipe with a schrader valve (the same type of valve on a ture intertube) is inserted into a pipe that is threaded into the pipe below the skimmer (with the leaf basket removed) An air compressor is then used to fill the tube with air. The air forces the water out of the entire pipe. Bubbles will come up from the drain when all of the water has been blown out of the pipe. The pressure of the air being in the pipe keeps the water from flowing back into the pipe. Hope this answers your question.
What goes up a drain pipe down but not down a drain pipe?

Why does your ac PVC drain pipe blows out cold air?
That drain pipe is meant to remove condensed water from the chmber where the air is blown through the system, if there is air coming through there it just means there is no water in the line that has condensed. many units turn the drain tube upward slightly so a little water always stays in the pipe pereventing the escape of cold air. It works like a P trap on your sink.

Do i need a tub for the washing machine to drain can't i just drain it into a drain pipe?
You can drain it directly into a drain pipe. Just make sure the the top of the drain pipe is even with the top of the washing machine. If not, the water from the washing machine will drain all of the time. There is no valve in the machine to stop the water from draining. The washing machine drains using a pump motor.
