Built for installation beneath residential and light commercial water heaters, this pan helps protect floors, subfloors, and surrounding structures from water damage. The side drain outlet allows a drain line to be routed to a nearby floor drain or exterior point without requiring overhead clearance above the pan. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians typically specify this type of pan during new installations and equipment replacements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pan is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a large-diameter water heater requires a code-compliant drip pan beneath the unit. A 36-inch pan accommodates larger tank-style water heaters commonly found in commercial utility rooms, multi-family mechanical rooms, and high-demand residential installs. The side drain configuration is particularly useful in tight mechanical spaces where a bottom drain outlet would be obstructed by the floor or platform surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e36-inch diameter fits large tank-style water heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum construction resists corrosion in wet service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSide drain outlet simplifies drain line routing in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-profile design sits flat beneath the water heater base\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps meet local plumbing code requirements for water heater drip pans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation drip pan for large-diameter tank-style water heaters requiring a 36-inch pan with side drain outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with IPC and local plumbing code requirements.
