Oatey awhp3087010 Aluminum Water Heater Pan 26 Inches

Product Description

The OATEY awhp3087010 is a 26-inch aluminum water heater pan designed to catch leaks and protect floors and structural surfaces from water damage caused by tank failures or condensation. It installs beneath residential gas or electric water heaters and connects to an indirect drain line through the included 1-inch to 1.5-inch PVC adapter. The aluminum construction keeps the pan lightweight without sacrificing rigidity. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this pan during new water heater installations or when replacing an existing unit.

This pan fits residential water heater installations where a 26-inch pan diameter is required. It suits both gas and electric tank-style water heaters and is appropriate for use in utility rooms, garages, closets, and mechanical spaces where a drain pan is required or recommended by local code. The threaded PVC adapter allows straightforward connection to standard PVC drain piping to route discharge water to an approved drain location.
