rusty water

[speezer]

Hi, my a/c unit drains in my garage drain , and now that the summer is coming to an end i have realized that the water looks rusty in color in the drainpipe. this is a new system installed at the beginning of the summer, a carrier performance heat pump. Should i be concerned? is the condensation water in the drain pipe rusty for a specific reason, or is it the continous flow of water just turning the pipe this color from the water hardness or something or other?

Coils will begin to rust and is normal, A few months is too soon I would have it checked, it probably isn't draining properly and has water standing in the unit.
