Drain pans won't handle a catastrophic failure. I installed this in our house to protect against pipe failure. We had the old grey poly-b pipe (since replaced) that was used in the late 90s.
You can DIY this if you are handy with soldering copper pipes, or get a plumber to install it for a couple hundred bucks.
Apparently water damage claims cost exceeds fire.
