An HVAC system may include a housing having a first wall and a second wall opposite the first wall and an evaporator disposed within a portion of the housing to cool an air flow. The portion of the housing may include an inlet and an outlet to receive and output the air flow. The HVAC system may also include a multi-configuration drain pan assembly that collects condensate formed by cooling of the air flow and may include a first drain pan and a second drain pan. The first drain pan may selectively couple to the housing in a first position or a second position, and, the second drain pan may couple to the housing in a third position or a fourth position, different from the third position, relative to the first drain pan.
