ABSTRACT:
An overflow tray for use with a water containing appliance. The overflow tray comprises a base for receiving and supporting a water containing appliance. A plurality of walls extend transversely from the base to define a watertight container. One of the walls has a pair of end portions cooperating with the base to define a frame. Each end portion connects a respective one of a pair of the walls to the base. Each end portion has a length greater than the thickness of a connected wall to reinforce and strengthen the connected wall adjacent the one wall. The one wall further includes a removable gate receivable in the frame and extendable between the end portions. A groove is located in one of the removable gate and the frame. A projection is located on the other of the removable gate and the frame for receipt in the groove and engagement with an elastomeric seal to form a watertight seal in the one wall.
