Ips hp2224 Water Heater Pan with Drain Kit 22 Inch

Product Description

The IPS hp2224 is a plastic water heater pan with an integrated drain kit, designed to catch leaks and drips beneath electric water heaters in residential installations. Measuring 22 inches in length and 22 inches in width with a 3-inch depth, this pan provides a reliable containment footprint under standard tank-style water heaters. Constructed from durable, corrosion-resistant plastic, the hp2224 is built to hold up in wet service conditions without rusting or degrading. It is designed to comply with local plumbing codes that require secondary containment beneath water heaters in finished spaces. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this pan as part of a code-compliant water heater installation.

The hp2224 is suited for residential applications where a water heater is located inside living areas, utility closets, or any space where a leak could cause water damage to floors or surrounding structure. The included drain kit allows a drain line to be routed away from the pan to a suitable discharge point, meeting common code requirements for pan drainage. This pan is appropriate for use beneath electric water heaters installed on finished floors in single-family homes and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation of a water heater pan is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing code requirements, which may reference IPC or similar standards. Shut off power to the water heater at the breaker and turn off the cold water supply before working in the installation area. The drain fitting from the pan should be routed to an appropriate drain or discharge location as required by the authority having jurisdiction. Do not leave the pan drain line unconnected where code requires drainage.
