I have a water leak from the suction line right at the place where it
gets into the air handler. There was a putty around the pipe from
which the water is leaking. When I removed the putty which was already
loose, I see that there is an air leak as well. I am not sure what is
the problem here and also there is some rust around the area where the
insulated pipe gets into the air handler.
Not sure how big problem is this. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve.

Update: The leak is where the pipe enters the coil. So, I put the
putty back and also put duct tape all around it and no air leak and
water leak so far. It's been almost 15 minutes now. I set the
thermostat at 75 such that the air conditioning runs for a while and
also put a tissue paper to see if there is any leak. Will update
tomorrow morning.
I am still not sure if the air leak is a concern that I just stopped
it. I am sure it's coming from the blower but not sure.
Thanks in advance.

Instead of screwing around with something you obviously don't know anything
about, you need to be calling you local tech.

You might prepare for the worst by ordering life jackets for the family.
