Amana-Goodman 20171701 Drain Trap

The Amana-Goodman 20171701 Drain Trap is a critical OEM replacement component engineered for high-efficiency condensing gas furnaces. Specifically designed for secondary heat exchanger condensate management, this molded plastic trap ensures the proper drainage of acidic moisture while maintaining the airtight integrity of the combustion system. As a veteran-grade HVAC furnace drain kit part, it prevents flue gases from escaping through the drain line, securing consistent pressure switch readings and reliable ignition cycles. This Goodman furnace condensation trap features calibrated inlet and outlet ports to handle peak condensate flow rates without backing up into the inducer housing. When diagnosing furnace drainage issues or water leaks near the blower compartment, replacing a cracked or clogged 20171701 manifold trap is a standard preventative measure to avoid pressure switch lockout codes and potential heat exchanger corrosion from standing water.

• OEM Compatibility: Specifically engineered for Amana and Goodman condensing furnaces, ensuring local code compliance and precise fitment.
• Durable Construction: High-grade polypropylene housing resists chemical degradation from acidic condensate.
• Pressure Integrity: Maintains the internal static pressure required for proper inducer motor operation and safety switch functionality.
• Direct Replacement: Simplifies condensate trap installation by utilizing existing mounting points and hose diameters.

How do I resolve a Goodman furnace water leak from the trap?
Inspect the 20171701 trap for hairline fractures or sediment buildup. Clear any slime or debris that may be obstructing the internal baffle system to restore proper flow.

Does this trap fit 90% AFUE furnaces?
Yes, this component is designed for 90% plus AFUE high-efficiency furnaces where moisture removal is a byproduct of the combustion process.

Why is my furnace pressure switch tripping?
A clogged Amana drain trap can cause water to back up into the inducer, preventing the pressure switch from closing. Cleaning or replacing the trap often resolves these furnace pressure switch errors.
