Water leaking around an RV rooftop air conditioner is a very specific and very common problem in Florida. The foam gasket between the AC unit and the roof compresses over time, creating small gaps where water can enter. Combined with failed lap sealant around the perimeter of the AC opening, even moderate Florida rain can push water into the roof cavity.

The tricky part of an AC roof leak is that the water entry point is at the roof but the drip shows up 6 to 12 inches inside the coach - often on the ceiling panel near the AC vent. Many owners assume the AC unit itself is producing condensation when the actual problem is rainwater entering around the AC boot.

How We Diagnose and Repair AC Roof Leaks

We inspect the AC roof gasket by removing the roof shroud and checking the gasket condition and compression. We inspect the lap sealant around all four sides of the AC opening from the roof. We then use a moisture meter inside the coach to determine if water has already entered the cavity and assess any damage.

For most AC roof leaks, the repair involves replacing the roof gasket (a relatively inexpensive part) and reapplying Dicor lap sealant around the AC perimeter. If the foam has compressed significantly, adding a weatherstrip layer can restore a good seal without requiring full AC removal.

Prevention and Ongoing Maintenance

Inspect AC roof sealant annually - before and after Florida rainy season
Look for cracks, gaps, or lifted edges in the lap sealant around the AC
Replace AC roof gaskets every 5 to 7 years regardless of visible condition
Any AC-related roof work should use Dicor self-leveling sealant formulated for your roof type

FAQ

Common Questions

Is the water dripping from my AC ceiling vent a roof leak or condensation?

Condensation from a properly working AC is collected in the drip pan and drains to the exterior. Water dripping from around the ceiling vent or unit frame is almost always a roof leak around the AC gasket or sealant, not condensation.

How much does it cost to reseal an RV AC on the roof?

A typical AC sealant repair - replacing lap sealant around one AC unit - runs $145 to $195. If the roof gasket also needs replacement, add $75 to $95. This is one of the highest-value preventive repairs for Florida RV owners.

Can I use regular silicone caulk to seal around my RV AC?

No. Standard silicone caulk is not compatible with EPDM rubber roofs and will not adhere properly or maintain flexibility. Use only Dicor self-leveling or non-sag sealant approved for your specific roof material.

How long does AC roof leak repair take?

A standard AC sealant replacement is a 45 to 90 minute job. If the gasket also needs replacement, add 30 to 60 minutes. Most AC roof repairs are completed in under 2 hours.
