iMac Liquid Damage: What We See

iMac liquid damage is most often caused by drinks spilled near the base of the display, where the ventilation slots draw air, and liquid, into the chassis. Office water leaks and cleaning accidents account for a significant number of iMac liquid damage cases we see in Johannesburg each year.

The iMac's all-in-one design means the logic board, power supply, display, and storage are all in the same chassis. Liquid can affect any or all of these components depending on where it enters and how much was involved.

iMac Water Damage, FAQs

The most common causes are drinks spilled onto the keyboard that run underneath the iMac, ceiling leaks or sprinkler activations in office environments, and cleaning products sprayed near the display. The iMac's ventilation slots are at the bottom of the display panel, which makes it vulnerable to liquid seeping in from above or below.
