An equipment pad generally includes at least four risers and at least four channels. Riser tops extend outwardly and broaden from a central portion of the equipment pad and comprise an equipment support surface. Channel beds and side walls extend outwardly and may curve or bend from the central portion of the equipment pad to comprise a ground support surface. Channel openings together span from 15% to 50% of the perimeter of the equipment pad and allow drainage to exit the channels. The horizontal area of the channel beds comprises from 20% to 50% of the total combined horizontal area of the channel beds and riser tops. Typically, each channel is wider at the channel opening than at the central portion of the equipment pad.

The pad's corners typically have a combined length of at least 20% of the perimeter of the equipment pad.

An adjustable mounting assembly for an outdoor unit of an air conditioning unit is disclosed. In some embodiments, the outdoor unit on the adjustable mounting assembly may be capable of moving between among multiple height positions, for example, from a higher loading position to a lower installed position. For example, in some embodiments, the adjustable mounting assembly may include a counterbalancing mechanism to facilitate the position movement of the outdoor unit. In some other embodiments, the position movement of the outdoor unit may be achieved by folding and/or unfolding of a scissor lifting mechanism.

An auxiliary drain pan for installation vertically below a humidifier. The pan has a base and a peripheral wall around the base and a single opening formed in the base adapted to form an anti-backflow connection with a conduit from the humidifier for directing liquid from the humidifier through the opening and a drainage connector, the anti-backflow connection preventing a reverse flow of liquid from the opening into the humidifier. The pan has a structure for supporting the base and having connecting features for connection with a vertical surface in an installed position, with the base secured in a substantially horizontal position in the installed position.
