Your A/C is fully capable of dumping a large amount of water on your floor this time of year. Put a bucket below the drain of your A/C, and find if this your source. You may have to cut the pipe to do this, but easy to repair. Absolutely! Your A/C is fully capable of dumping a large amount of water on your floor this time of year.

This needs to be repaired immediately to prevent more damage. Check your furnace and you will find your ac leak. 2 gallons of water is a lot to pour on the floor.

Do what you need to do. Mop it up and see where it shows up first. Does it show up when the AC has not been running? Do downspouts drain away from the foundation? Does the ground slope away from the foundation? It's detective work and is pretty simple if you think about it. Track it back to the source. Do what you need to do.
