Amana-Goodman 10197201S Collector Box

The Amana-Goodman 10197201S Collector Box is a critical factory-authorized OEM part engineered for high-efficiency condensing furnaces. As a primary component for managing furnace condensate collection and flue gas airflow management, this collector box ensures that combustion byproducts are properly channeled to the drain system, preventing moisture buildup within the heat exchanger. This specific Goodman furnace replacement part is manufactured to precise tolerances to maintain the integrity of the secondary heat exchanger pressure 10197201S. Note that this is the collector box without gasket; a new seal should be sourced separately to ensure a gas-tight fit upon installation. Designed for high-duty cycles, this heavy-duty plastic housing resists the corrosive properties of acidic condensate, ensuring long-term HVAC system efficiency. For techs servicing Amana gas furnaces, using this genuine OEM replacement avoids the fitment and drainage issues often associated with generic aftermarket alternatives.

• Direct Compatibility: Precise fit for specific Goodman, Amana, and Janitrol models requiring the 10197201S part number.
• Enhanced Condensate Drainage: Improved internal geometry facilitates better fluid flow to prevent pressure switch trips.
• OEM Durability: Constructed from high-temperature resistant materials to withstand the acidic environment of condensing furnaces.
• Reliable Pressure Regulation: Maintains the specific static pressure required for draft inducer motor efficiency.

Does this collector box include the mounting gasket?
No, the 10197201S comes as the collector box only. We recommend ordering a new gasket to ensure a proper seal and prevent combustion gas leakage.

What causes a collector box to need replacement?
Most failures occur due to cracks in the plastic housing caused by thermal stress or the internal buildup of sediment that restricts condensate flow, resulting in water backing up into the inducer or pressure switches.

Can I use an aftermarket collector box instead?
While aftermarket options exist, genuine Amana-Goodman parts are necessary to ensure the pressure ports and drainage outlets align perfectly with the original furnace engineering specifications.
