The Goodman B1796630 is a genuine OEM flowrator inlet tube engineered as a direct, exact-fit replacement for the ARPT049-00C-1A air handler. This tube feeds refrigerant into the flowrator (fixed-orifice) metering device at the evaporator coil inlet, ensuring accurate refrigerant metering and even distribution across the coil. A properly seated inlet tube prevents refrigerant leaks, capacity loss, and coil icing.
This is the genuine Goodman OEM component, built to factory tolerances for a leak-tight, drop-in fit. Generic substitutes may require rebending, adapters, or extra brazing and can compromise metering accuracy. For warranty-sensitive repairs and dependable performance, choose the OEM tube.
Advanced — refrigerant-side work requiring brazing, recovery, evacuation, and recharge. This repair should be performed by an EPA 608-certified HVAC technician.
