For this reason, never, ever seal around the perimeter of the air conditioner - I cannot say how many times I have had to deal with a unit where someone slopped goop around the base of the air conditioner, trapping water in where it has to leak inside. The "inside" coils of the air conditioner sit in a drain pan, to collect the condensation, which then runs out a small hole in the side, and out the bottom."

I will take pictures when I am out there this afternoon to show how the top of the air conditioner is sitting on the cowling for the mount.
