A containment system for a packaged air conditioning unit is disclosed comprising a base pan, a first unit wrapper, a second unit wrapper, a compressor compartment partition, a condenser compartment partition, and a top cover having an indoor section and an outdoor section. The unit wrappers and the compartment partitions are guided into position during installation by engaging a notch formed on the wrapper or partition with a positioning cleat formed on the base pan. Because the unit wrappers and the partitions firmly abut the base ban throughout their length, these components help to laterally stiffen the base pan.

An improved base pan is disclosed for a large ground or roof mounted 'packaged' air conditioning unit. The base pan comprises a non-corrosive polymeric material but includes a section which is coated with a non-flammable substance. An airflow section of the base pan is defined by a raised platform, which, in combination with a set of ramp members, directs precipitation and condensation from the sensitive airlow section. Moisture droplets which do fall on the sensitive airflow section are directed toward a channel which uniformly slopes toward a drain hole.
