The Goodman 0161F00046 Condensate Drain Trap is a factory-original drainage component for the VMES961005CNAA high-efficiency condensing furnace. It captures and channels acidic condensate away from the secondary heat exchanger and inducer while maintaining a water seal that blocks flue gases from escaping through the drain line. A cracked or clogged trap is a leading cause of pressure-switch faults and water leaks.

Specifications

Type: Molded condensate collection trap
Maintains a water seal against flue-gas leakage
Corrosion-resistant material rated for acidic condensate
OEM port sizing for factory drain tubing and inducer connection
Direct-fit replacement — no adapters needed
Fits: Goodman VMES961005CNAA and compatible condensing furnaces

OEM vs. Generic

This genuine Goodman OEM trap is molded to the exact port geometry your furnace's tubing routes to. Universal or generic traps frequently require adapters that leak or alter the drain slope, causing standing water, tripped pressure switches, and nuisance shutdowns. The OEM component drops in cleanly for a reliable seal.

Installation Difficulty

Easy to Moderate (2 of 5). Power down, disconnect the drain and inducer tubing, remove the mounting screw or clip, and swap the trap. Prime the new trap with water to establish the seal before restarting. Inspect tubing for clogs while you're in there. About a 20-minute repair; disconnect power first.
