Island Of Misfits

[Hippie420]

I keep mine in large water collects (plant trays) mostly so I see slight runoff and the wet grow bag pot does not sit on the wood deck the entire grow , (ruins the paint and will start wood damage)
But that is me . Im sure others will say differently

Glad you mentioned it, 'cause I was going to. I guess if you moved the pots often it wouldn't hurt the deck, but it surely would be detrimental to the wood to be constantly wet/damp with no chance of really drying out if the pots weren't moved often.

Look up water heater overflow trays
You may have to seal the drain hole or leave it for any heavy rains

Why the drain

 

[RosterMan]

Why the drain

Used as a run off hose in case heater leaks or has pressure overload and releases.
A hose is attached to it and the water drains off into a sump.

Some installers install them to make sure the cheap water heaters that are failing mor often now as a back up feature
