If you are talking about the large copper pipe, you wrap it in
insulation. You can get it at Home Depot or Lowes.

What is a condensate drain pipe?
A condensate drain pipe is used in conjunction with air
conditioning equipment. Usually installed with heat pumps, this
drain pipe gives condensation a place to run off.
Asked in Evaporation and Condensation
Is condensation the same as cooling?
No it is not. Condensation does occur on the evaporator in an
air conditioning system.
Asked in Air Conditioning and Coolant
Should you leave an air conditioner spitting water on or off?
An air conditioner that is spitting probably has a blockage in
its drainage. Because colder air cannot hold as much water as
warmer air, air conditioning causes water to condense out of the
air. Algae thrives in the drainage of the condensation, and a
colony of algae can grow to the point that the drainage is blocked.
To prevent that, pour a cup of bleach into the drainage every month
or two. If the condensation drains through a tube or pipe, such a
blockage can be easily blown out (just don't touch your lips
directly to the tube or pipe).

Asked in Evaporation and Condensation
Why does condensation leaks from pipe on central air unit when the air conditioner is running is this normal?
Because it's pumping freon through the pipe and its freezing
cold
Asked in Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning
When your air is running you are getting water on the floor under the furnace what should you do?
Investigate the way in which condensation is being moved away
from the heat exchange. Air conditioning dehumidifies the air as it
cools it. The moisture from the process needs to go someplace.
Usually there is a pipe that takes it to a sump pump or drain. This
could be clogged. Or if it wasn't installed with a drain, you may
need to install a condensation pump.

Asked in Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning
Will air conditioning cause dry skin?
Because the home is sealed in order to prevent air flow from
outside to inside, air conditioning can cause dry skin. It also
removes the humidity in the air.
Asked in Windshields and Wipers
Can you caulk your windshield to stop condensation?
Condensation is the 'condensing of water/water vapor already
within your car. Caulking the windshield, inside or out, will NOT
stop condensation.
To reduce the water droplets/condensation on the windows inside
your car, turn on the air conditioning system and/or slightly open
a rear window for better air flow.
