A drain pan for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a trough defining a flow path and configured to direct condensate along the flow path, a shield disposed within the trough and having a body extending across the trough, and a notch formed in the shield and positioned in the flow path to enable flow of the condensate along the flow path and through the notch.

Shield for HVAC drain pan

A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a condensate drain pan configured to be positioned beneath a heat exchanger of the HVAC system, relative to gravity, and configured to collect condensate formed via operation of the heat exchanger. The condensate drain pan comprises a drain surface, a plurality of walls extending from the drain surface to form a receptacle configured to collect the condensate, and a drain outlet formed in a wall of the plurality of walls. The condensate drain pan further comprises an air dam comprising a plurality of baffles, wherein a baffle of the plurality of baffles extends from the wall of the plurality of walls. The air dam is configured to re-direct an air flow flowing within the condensate drain pan away from the drain outlet.
