Positioned on the suction line ahead of the compressor, the accumulator traps liquid refrigerant and oil and meters it back to the compressor as vapor at a controlled rate. This is critical on heat pumps, where reversing-valve operation and defrost cycles can send liquid slugs toward the compressor — a leading cause of valve and bearing failure. A pitted, restricted, or leaking accumulator should be replaced to protect the compressor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: suction-line (compressor) accumulator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunction: prevents liquid refrigerant slugging, manages oil return\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnections: OEM suction-line sizing for the APH platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: Goodman\/Amana APH1549M41BA heat pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: B1226207\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccumulator sizing — internal volume, oil-return orifice, and connection dimensions — is matched to the system's refrigerant charge and compressor.

This is EPA-certified-technician work — it is not a DIY part. Budget 2–3 hours plus recovery\/recharge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShips from a US warehouse. Fitment questions?
