Goodman B1796630 Flowrator Inlet Tube

The B1796630 is a genuine OEM flowrator inlet tube for Goodman ARPF364216AB air handler coils. The flowrator (piston-style metering device) controls refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil, and this inlet tube is the precision connection that feeds the liquid line into that metering assembly. A correct inner diameter and length are critical here — even small variations affect refrigerant charge and cooling performance, which is why the factory part matters.

Function: Flowrator (metering device) inlet connection tube
Fits: Goodman ARPF364216AB air handler coil

OEM vs. Generic

Refrigerant metering components are not a place to improvise. The genuine Goodman B1796630 is sized to match the coil's designed flow rate; a mismatched generic tube can cause poor cooling, icing, or compressor stress. At this price point, the OEM part is the clear choice for a reliable repair.

Installation Difficulty

Advanced — professional recommended. Replacement involves opening the sealed refrigerant circuit, brazing connections, and recovering/recharging refrigerant. This should be performed by an EPA-certified HVAC technician.
