Answers:
Simply put, the more moisture you have in the air, the more your a/c is going to take out of the air.
As far as the drain plug leaking, there should be a rubber o-ring on it to seal it. If it's not there anymore, you can either try to find a new one or use pipe dope to seal it so it won't leak anymore.
