The Goodman B1796630 Flowrator Inlet Tube is a genuine OEM refrigerant-metering component engineered for AEPF426016AA air handlers and matching Goodman/Amana indoor coil assemblies. The flowrator (piston-style metering device) inlet tube routes liquid refrigerant into the metering orifice, ensuring correct flow and pressure across the evaporator coil. A correctly seated inlet tube is critical for proper superheat and efficient cooling performance.

OEM vs. Generic

This is a factory-original Goodman component built to exact tolerances for refrigerant flow. Generic or universal tubing often requires field brazing and adapter fittings, which can introduce leak points and metering errors. The OEM B1796630 drops into the original location for a leak-tight, spec-correct repair.

Install Difficulty

Advanced — refrigerant system component requiring EPA Section 608 certification, recovery, brazing, and evacuation. Recommended for licensed HVAC technicians only.
