Best Answer

The white vapor that you see usually appears when the air out and inside of the car are both very humid. When you turn on the A/C, it blasts out very cold air. In air that it has cooled, the high moisture content of that air has been condensed into droplets of water making the mist or fog.

Why is smoke coming from the air conditioner vent when the air is on while the car has been running for a while?

AnswerWater vapor will sometimes exit your car's vents when hot humid air passes through the A/C cooling system too fast for the condensing moisture to form into water droplets. This can be resolved by selecting recycled air from inside the car, but the vapor is not harmful and usually doesn't last long.


Does an air conditioner add humidity to a room?

The simple answer is no. What an air conditioner does, is cool air (obviously). When air is cooled however, it loses its ability to hold moisture. Therefore, the relative humidity (Water vapor/Capacity) of the air in the room will increase despite the fact that no moisture was added.

Why is smoke coming out of your home air conditioner?

I assume that the smoke you experience hasn't burned your house down yet. The vapor that appears about 12" from the a/c is cold air from the air conditioner meeting the warm air in the room it is cooling, and the cold condenses water vapor out of the hot air, just like a cloud. So it may be steam you're seeing -- not smoke. It should go away after the room cools down a little. If this is not the case, and it really is smoke in your room, then you need to turn off the air conditioner, then unplug it, and call a certified a/c technician. It's possible that someone may have overcharged the freon in that air conditioner.
