It sits in a dip pan and the pressure relief pipe is piped down to the drip pan, but there is no connection to a drain or the outside (in case the water heater starts leaking). Is this against code?


Depends on a lot of things but the TPR is supposed to terminate just above the drain pan with nothing threaded or able to be threaded on.

It does. I'm more concerned about the tank actually leaking.
