The Goodman B1796630 Flowrator Inlet Tube is a genuine OEM refrigerant tube that feeds the flowrator (fixed-orifice metering device) on the Goodman AEPT060-00C-1 air handler. This small but critical component delivers liquid refrigerant to the evaporator coil's metering device at the correct entry point, supporting proper refrigerant flow and rated cooling performance. A damaged, kinked, or corroded inlet tube can restrict flow and reduce capacity — replacing it with the factory part restores correct operation.
As a genuine OEM Goodman part, this inlet tube matches the original's diameter, length, and bend geometry exactly, so it seats correctly to the coil and flowrator without modification. Generic tubing typically requires field bending and refitting, increasing the risk of restriction or leaks. For accurate metering and a clean braze joint, the OEM tube is the right fit.
Difficult — Refrigerant-circuit work: requires recovery of refrigerant, brazing, evacuation, and recharge per EPA Section 608. Must be performed by an EPA-certified HVAC technician. Estimated time: varies by system access.
