That almost made a grown man cry. I have a new air and while I never had that type of water damage I started sprouting some mold in the drawers, I assume from unit being over-filled forcing all the air from the fan into the single drawers. I unplugged the unit and have never had an issue or looked back. My issue was different than yours but lots of stories out there about water pooling in wineadors. Best of luck on the rest of the sticks.
