Abstract
An air conditioning appliance includes a housing, a drain pan positioned below the housing, and a plenum which is attached to the housing and to the drain pan. The drain pan includes an upper surface in contact with the housing and a socket configured to receive a leg. The housing of the air conditioning appliance rests on the upper surface of the drain pan, such that the drain pan defines a platform which structurally supports the housing of the air conditioning appliance.
