Rheem-Ruud AS-58418-83 Drain Pan
The Rheem-Ruud AS-58418-83 Drain Pan Assembly is a critical OEM replacement part designed for high-efficiency moisture management in compatible HVAC condensate systems. This heavy-duty assembly serves as the direct professional replacement for the legacy AS-58418-03 model and is engineered specifically for 6-row evaporator coils. Built with integrated drain pan insulation, this component prevents external sweating and protects the surrounding cabinetry from moisture-related damage. The AS-58418-83 features side-oriented drain connections to facilitate streamlined plumbing in tight air handler bays. Technicians should note that this specific pan is designed for cooling-only or heat pump applications and is not rated for use in high-heat furnace environments. Replacing a cracked or corroded condensate drip pan is essential to maintaining system pressure and preventing HVAC water leaks that lead to mold growth or structural saturation. Ensure a precise fit by verifying the unit's nomenclature against the Rheem-Ruud technical specifications before installation.
Key Benefits- Direct OEM Match: Provides an exact fit for 6-row coil configurations, ensuring the Rheem-Ruud AS-58418-83 integrates seamlessly with existing drainage lines.
- Moisture Protection: Factory-installed insulation reduces thermal transfer, preventing condensation buildup on the exterior of the secondary drain pan.
- Enhanced Reliability: Replaces brittle or rusted legacy pans like the AS-58418-03 to restore reliable condensate management.
- Strategic Drainage: Side-exit ports allow for standard NPT fittings and flexible routing in various mounting orientations.
Is the AS-58418-83 compatible with gas furnace applications?
No, this drain pan assembly includes insulation that is not designed for the high-temperature environment of a gas furnace. It should only be utilized in cooling-only or heat pump air handlers.
What is the primary difference between the AS-58418-83 and the AS-58418-03?
The AS-58418-83 is the updated manufacturer replacement for the 03 version, featuring improved material resilience while maintaining the same HVAC part compatibility footprint.
Does this assembly include the drain tube kit?
Yes, this Rheem drain pan replacement typically includes the necessary internal fittings required to secure the 6-row coil within the assembly.
