No drain pan for when it eventually pops? Rest looks good!
Was going to say, everything looks nice except missing drain pan, which I'm sure is code.
It's in a concrete garage, and a foam pad is recommended over a pan.
I’ve never seen the foam pad before. What purpose does it serve?
My last place had a drain pan (third floor condo) which makes sense to me. My new place it’s on a raised platform in the garage.
It provides thermal insulation since the tank is on a concrete slab.
Different places have different codes. No pan on ours either.
