OEM Goodman Condensate Drain Trap for AMEC961004CNAD — 0161F00046

Goodman 0161F00046 Condensate Drain Trap

The 0161F00046 is a genuine OEM condensate drain trap for the Goodman/Amana AMEC961004CNAD high-efficiency (96% AFUE) condensing furnace. In a condensing furnace the secondary heat exchanger produces acidic condensate that must drain freely while the trap maintains a water seal that blocks flue gases from escaping into the cabinet. A cracked, clogged, or algae-fouled trap triggers pressure-switch lockouts, water leakage, and no-heat faults.

• Part Number: 0161F00046
• Type: Condensate drain trap assembly
• Function: Drains condensate while maintaining a flue-gas water seal
• Fits: Goodman/Amana AMEC961004CNAD condensing furnaces
• Connections: Molded hose-barb ports for factory drain tubing

OEM vs. Generic

The trap's internal geometry and port sizing are tuned to the AMEC961004CNAD's drainage layout and inducer vacuum. A mismatched generic trap can alter the pressure balance and cause nuisance pressure-switch trips. The OEM 0161F00046 fits the factory tubing without adapters.

Installation Difficulty: Easy–Moderate

Disconnect the drain hoses, remove the old trap, prime the new trap with water to establish the seal, and reconnect. Flush the drain lines while access is open. Verify no leaks after restart. Typically a 20–30 minute job.
