Lots of water leaking from HVAC drain pipe
The drain is doing it's job, but there's some serious water coming out of the pipe outside. I probably wouldn't have noticed, but the drain pipe comes out on the roof of the patio, so obviously a steady flow of water isn't convenient.
Is it normal to have a significant drip (would fill a 5 gallon bucket in an hour or so) or is there something wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I know a guy that forgot to turn off his humidifier on his furnace/air handler since winter. When the fan turned on the water valve would open. Maybe you have something similar? Swamp cooler?

No, central air. Just had a new condenser installed, but the old one was doing the same thing.
