Goodman B1796630 Flowrator Inlet Tube

The Goodman B1796630 is a genuine OEM flowrator inlet tube for AEPT030-00C-1A air handlers and compatible Goodman/Amana coils. This short refrigerant tube connects the liquid line to the flowrator (piston-style metering device) at the evaporator coil inlet, ensuring refrigerant enters the metering orifice cleanly and at the correct angle. A kinked, corroded, or damaged inlet tube can restrict flow, cause uneven coil feeding, and degrade cooling capacity. Replacing it with the factory part restores proper refrigerant delivery.

Specifications

Part Number: B1796630 (OEM Goodman)
Function: Flowrator (metering device) inlet connection
Application: Evaporator coil refrigerant feed
Fitment: AEPT030-00C-1A and compatible Goodman/Amana air handlers
Material: Seamless copper refrigerant tubing

OEM vs. Generic

The genuine Goodman B1796630 arrives pre-formed to the correct length and bend so it lines up to the flowrator and liquid line without rework. Generic tubing must be cut and bent by hand, risking restrictions, leaks at improvised joints, and metering inaccuracy. The OEM tube is braze-ready and dimensionally exact.

Installation Difficulty

Advanced (4/5). Requires refrigerant recovery, brazing the tube into the coil circuit, pressure testing, evacuation, and recharge. This is an EPA 608–certified task — recover refrigerant and protect surrounding components before brazing.
