Camco Mfg 11410 Plastic Drain Pan 28 Inch Electric Water Heater

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 11410 is a plastic drain pan designed to catch overflow and leaks beneath electric water heaters. Molded from polypropylene, this pan resists rust, corrosion, and cracking over its service life. It measures 28 inches in interior diameter and 2.63 inches deep, giving it enough capacity to contain minor leaks and alert installers to a failing tank before water damage spreads. A PVC drain fitting is included and installs through a pre-cut side opening, allowing the plumber to route collected water to a floor drain or standpipe without drilling. This is a code-required component in many residential water heater installations.

This pan is intended for use under residential electric water heaters with a tank diameter that fits within the 28-inch interior. It is not rated for use under gas-fired water heaters. Typical installation occurs in utility rooms, garages, closets, and crawlspace mechanical areas where a water heater sits on a finished floor or platform. Plumbers install this pan during new water heater set or as a retrofit when an existing pan is cracked, missing, or undersized.

Key Features

• 28-inch interior diameter accommodates standard large-capacity electric water heater tanks
• 2.63-inch depth provides meaningful containment volume for slow leaks
• Polypropylene construction will not rust, corrode, or crack under normal service conditions
• Pre-cut side opening eliminates field drilling for drain line connection
• PVC drain fitting included for immediate installation without additional fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation drain pan for residential electric water heaters requiring a 28-inch interior diameter pan.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off electrical power to the water heater at the breaker before positioning the pan or disturbing any connections. Connect the included PVC fitting to the pre-cut side opening and route the drain line to an approved indirect waste receptor or floor drain. Do not use this pan under gas water heaters, as it is not rated for that application.
