Nordyne 669855R Drain Pan
Transitioning a Nordyne air handler to a horizontal configuration requires a reliable condensate management system to prevent moisture carryover and site damage. The Nordyne 669855R Horizontal Drain Pan is the official OEM replacement part engineered specifically for these applications, succeeding any legacy 669855 or 669299 components. Constructed from heavy-duty galvanized steel, this secondary drain pan features a standard 1/2-inch NPT drain connection and is designed to sit beneath the evaporator coil to capture runoff effectively. With dimensions of approximately 18" x 14" x 2", this HVAC drain pan ensures a precise fit within Nordyne air handlers and Miller furnaces, maintaining the narrow clearances required in horizontal setups. Utilizing an OEM part for your evaporator coil drainage ensures that the pitch and drainage ports align perfectly with the unit's internal chassis, mitigating the risk of stagnant water or localized corrosion that often occurs with generic alternatives.
Key Benefits
- Universal Compatibility: Serves as a direct-fit replacement for 669855 and 669299, ensuring no onsite modifications are needed.
- Durable Construction: High-grade galvanized steel provides superior resistance to rust and chemical biological growth compared to plastic pans.
- Optimized Drainage: Precision-stamped design with a low-profile 1/2-inch NPT outlet maximizes condensate flow rates.
- System Protection: Essential for horizontal installations to prevent water damage to ceilings and structural components.
- OEM Standards: Guaranteed to meet original equipment airflow and clearance specifications for Nordyne HVAC systems.
Common Questions
Is the 669855R a direct replacement for the older 669855 model?
Yes, the 669855R is the current manufacturer-approved update for the discontinued 669855 part number. It maintains the same physical footprint and mounting requirements.
Can this pan be used in vertical (upflow/downflow) installations?
No, this specific part is a horizontal drain pan designed for units laid on their side. Vertical configurations typically use an internal primary pan integrated into the coil assembly.
What is the best way to prevent terminal corrosion on galvanized pans?
Ensure the 1/2-inch NPT connection is fitted with a proper P-trap and maintain the pan pitch. Avoid using acidic coil cleaners that can strip the protective galvanization layer.
