22 Inch Aluminum Water Heater Drain Pan with PVC Fitting

The 22 Inch Aluminum Water Heater Drain Pan with PVC Fitting is a larger aluminum water heater pan for residential tanks that need more base clearance than a 20-inch pan. It is used beneath the appliance to catch leakage and direct water into a drain line through the included PVC fitting.

The 22-inch inside diameter makes this pan more appropriate for medium tank diameters, while the aluminum body provides a stiffer metallic tray for utility rooms, garages, and gas water heater replacement jobs.

Product Features:

• 22-Inch ID / 24-Inch OD Size: IPS aluminum pan tables list the 22-inch version with a 24-inch outside diameter.
• Larger Tank Base Clearance: The 22-inch inside diameter provides more room around medium residential water heater bases than the 20-inch pan.
• PVC Reducer Connection: Standard IPS aluminum models include a 1-inch x 1-1/2-inch PVC drain connection for indirect drainage.
• Metal Body for Gas Appliances: Aluminum construction is commonly selected for gas water heater installs where heat exposure makes plastic less desirable.
• Shallow 2-1/8 Inch Pan Depth: Manufacturer literature lists a low-profile pan depth that catches leaks without excessive lift height.
• Pre-Drilled Outlet Model: Designed with a drain opening already provided, reducing field fabrication during installation.
• Mechanical-Room Upgrade: Useful when replacing a water heater and upsizing from a smaller or deteriorated drain pan.
