Plop, Plop, Fizz, Fizz, Oh what a Drip it is

Posted by Shelly

One negative symptom of summer in Hong Kong is leaking air conditioners. When I pay attention I can dodge the wet spots on the sidewalk,


but at least once a day I will still get hit with a big wet splat. Earlier this month, it was nice to see the this flyer posted in our apartment’s hallway reminding people that it is rude to let their aircon drip.


However, earlier this week it was not so nice to receive a personalized note in our mailbox informing us that we are part of the group of annoying drippers.


We have turned on the air-conditioners, crossed the street, counted up to the 7th floor and studied our apartment. We can’t see any water leaking from our units, but as we don’t want the government coming after us, we will be getting in touch with our landlord.
