Air Conditioner Gutter Drains

My a/c front gutter drains constantly drip and when I open the cab doors water drips into the inside of the door pockets. Has anyone had this problem and how did you fix it?

use a clothes pin as a gutter extension.
If that's not enough attach a piece of clothes line to clip.
Water will in fact follow it.

You can also buy gutter extensions from any RV shop / website or any retail store RV section. We had to use them on our last trailer because the water dripped right onto a side window. They are in a drawer in the Sunseeker if we ever need them.

I wait until my A/C starts draining before I tighten the JB Strong arms. I want the A/C runoff to go to the back thus preventing dripping at the front of the RV. Its just a slight movement of the bubble nothing but a touch but it has worked for me for like ever....

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunally I had to cut my trip short and bring my motorhme back to the dealer yesterday because the air conditioner compressor would not come on. This is the third time it is in the shop and I only had it 3 months. I am beginning to think I should have bought a motorhome by a different manufacturer.. Our friends just traded in their 2014 Forest River Georgetown Class A motorhome after 4 months due to sooooo many problems.

Just a heads up on the A/C. Unfortunately every mfg uses the same one or two A/C suppliers. So no matter who you bought from, you could potentially have an A/C issue.

As a retired Navy Chief, I love that you have a yorkie named Master Chief!
