20 Inch Aluminum Water Heater Drain Pan with PVC Fitting

The 20 Inch Aluminum Water Heater Drain Pan with PVC Fitting is a compact aluminum leak-control pan for water heaters where a metal pan is preferred beneath the tank. It is sized around a 20-inch inside diameter and is used to intercept nuisance leaks or relief-valve discharge before water reaches the finished floor.

This pan is best matched to smaller residential tank bases where clearance is limited. Aluminum construction provides a rigid, rust-resistant tray, while the PVC fitting gives installers a way to pipe collected water to a drain instead of letting it sit in the pan.
