Camco Mfg 11460 Plastic Water Heater Drain Pan 22 in

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 11460 is a round plastic drain pan designed to catch leaks and condensation beneath electric water heaters. Measuring 22 inches in interior diameter and 2.63 inches deep, it provides a low-profile containment footprint suited to standard residential tank-style installations. The pan ships with a PVC drain fitting and includes a pre-cut side opening, allowing a plumber or installer to route drain line without cutting or drilling on site. The plastic construction resists rust, corrosion, and cracking over the service life of the water heater above it.

This drain pan is rated for use under electric water heaters only and is not suitable for gas-fired units. It is a common component in residential water heater installations where local plumbing codes require secondary containment, particularly in indoor closets, utility rooms, and finished spaces where water damage from a slow leak could be significant. The pre-installed PVC fitting simplifies drain line hookup during new installs or water heater replacements.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber during water heater replacement or new construction. Shut off power to the electric water heater at the breaker and turn off the water supply before beginning work. Connect the included PVC fitting to the pre-cut side opening and route the drain line to an appropriate floor drain or discharge point per local IPC requirements. Do not use this pan under gas water heaters.
