"could it be that the ducking may have a grap" ??? what you meant by that?

The evaporator coil purpose is to remove moisture and cool.

The reason an evaporator coil making a lot water because of the moisture in the air. If there is a lot moisture in the air, there will be a lot water in the evaporator pan.

Is the water in the pan not moving? The environment has to be extremely moisture for the evaporator coil to produce the 1 1/2 amount of water in pan for short period of time.

Is there a restriction in drip pipe?

Would you tell me if 1 ½ water in pan is within one hour, 30 minutes or 45 minutes of running the central air conditioner?

"it is dipping from under the unit" You meant it dipping from the evaporator pan??

Am I missing information here??

The evaporator is making water and a lot,it is dipping from under the unit, the PVC drain is draining outside. could it be that the ducking may have a grap in it and it could it be pulling Hot attic air into the compartment that is making it to make water ? the unit is cooling.

There should be a PVC pipe that allow the water in the pan to flow to outside.

The pipe is connective to the drip pan. It seems something is blocking the pipe.

Is the evaporator coil making water without the central air conditioner turn On or it making water while it running?

If you turn the central air conditioner unit on and it making water, that is normal. The amount of water it made depends on the humidity in that area.
