I simply used aluminum flashing to catch the water and direct it out the exterior vent, which I think it was supposed to do in the first place, but typical fit and finish left a large gap between the pan and the vent.
If the a/c unit is not set high enough in the front it won't grain properly. If the trailer is set up win the a/c side higher then it won't drain properly. I couldn't understand why they installed them other than pure cost savings in the build. I suspected it wouldn't work out for these reasons and the realization after the "honeymoon" wore off the the a/c unit consumes a lot of very limited available interior space. I guess it "looked good on paper" to the bean counters at the time.
