A fan coil condensate drain pan is made to be field adjustable to be pitched either to the fight side or to the left side when the fan coil unit is installed. This permits the drain pan to be self-draining and to be connected to a convenient field drain with a minimum of piping. The drain pan employs an elongated trough with an open upper side, and with left and right end caps. There are left and fight drain nipples that project through the respective end caps. The cabinet for the fan coil unit has left and right mounting brackets to which the left and right end caps are attached. The brackets have vertically elongated adjustment slots, and sheet metal screws or other suitable fasteners in these slots hold the end caps in place. The pitch can be selected on installation by loosening the screws on one side and lowering the end cap at that side. The drain nipple on the other side can be left open to serve as an overflow outlet.
Fan coil condensate drain pan for use in a fan coil unit having a cabinet, and in which the drain pan can be pitched for either fight side discharge or left side discharge;
