Rheem-Ruud 68-101805-82 Drain Pan

The Rheem-Ruud 68-101805-82 Drain Pan is a critical OEM component designed for high-efficiency condensate management in 17-inch air handler cabinets. This vertical 6-row drain pan provides a precise fit for evaporator coils, ensuring that moisture produced during the cooling cycle is captured and channeled away before it can cause cabinet corrosion or attic water damage. As a professional-grade Rheem replacement part, it features durable construction that resists the high-moisture environments typical of modern HVAC systems.

This unit is the authorized 68-101805-02 replacement and also replaces legacy part numbers 68-101805-06 and 68-101805-86. For technicians performing a Rheem evaporator coil repair, using this genuine HVAC condensate pan is vital to maintain system integrity and prevent the common leaks associated with cracked or rusted aftermarket alternatives. Designed specifically for 17-inch vertical HVAC units, it ensures proper clearance and drainage geometry for 6-row coils.

• Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered as an exact swap for several older part numbers, eliminating field modifications.
• Advanced Condensate Flow: The 6-row configuration and vertical pitch prevent standing water and bacterial growth.
• System Protection: Effectively shields your residential or commercial air handler from internal rust and moisture.
• Durable Construction: Built to withstand the temperature fluctuations and humidity within the supply plenum.

Is the 68-101805-82 compatible with my system if my current pan is a different color?
Yes, Rheem has updated materials and part numbers over time. As long as your unit uses a 17-inch cabinet and your original part number is 68-101805-02, 06, or 86, this is the correct technical replacement.

Does this include the drain tube kit?
This is the primary drain pan assembly. It is recommended to inspect your existing drain lines and float switches during installation to ensure the entire drainage system is clear of obstructions.

How do I verify fitment for specific coil models?
This vertical pan is standard for many RCGA and RCBA coils. Always confirm your specific coil model and 17" cabinet width to ensure a leak-free installation.
