Best Answer

You need to first try to determine how the water got into the vent. A heavy Rain would not result in water coming through your vent unless it was first able to get into the house or AC system in some way.

Once you've determined how the water entered the house you can look to your home insurance for coverage. Perhaps you have some roof damage such as a missing shingle or perhaps even a break in your siding or brick work that is allowing the water to enter.

If you have coverage for the water entry source you would want to address that first. If the causing source is not a covered item then you would need to repair it at your own expense. Once repaired you could seek coverage for the resulting damage if you have water damage coverage on your policy.
