Perfectly functional pan, great value. Recently replaced our 20 year old water heater, still working fine but it did not have a pan underneath. House is on a slab, water heater is in a closet adjoining a carpeted bedroom. Definitely wanted a pan under the new heater and this fit the bill. Came with bulkhead fitting, all aluminum does the job.

Could be a little heavier metal, but it works.

We used this to catch any stray water from the Christmas Tree. Worked perfectly. And as it's round, it was easy to cover.

Poor execution of a simple concept
The drain hole is +1 inch above the pan floor. Why someone would want their water heater sitting in an inch of water before it starts draining is baffling to me. Seems it would be better to put the hole closer to the floor with a smaller fitting for tubing instead of 1 to 1-1/2 inch pvc. I'll probably end of drilling such a hole in mine so the pan isn't a mosquito nursery year round.

    Pan was very susceptible to bending.

      Much more secure than plastic pan.

      The Home Depot online listing had the wrong dimensions listed for size of bottom and upper rim. In fact, every pan they sell had the wrong dimensions listed, as we have since learned. We bought online, and drove 2 hours from Canada to pick up the pan, and it was the wrong size (too big for our nook) and super flimsy. This was a major hassle that cost us 5hrs of time and gas. Very unhappy with product and service.

      This drain pan was the perfect size to work with in the installation of our new hot water tank.

        This option did not come with a plug so therefore since I'm not hooking it up to a drain or a hose right away this doesn't quite work out

        The specified size is inaccurate-misleading. This 26” water heater pan is only 26” at the bottom, while the top flares out to 28” and will not fit tight areas. It was unusable necessitating an order from a different supplier.

        While it makes a good heated bird bath, it is hard to ensure the fitting is leak proof.
