Lennox 17F07 Collector Box
When you're dealing with condensate leaks or secondary heat exchanger drainage issues, the Lennox 17F07 Collector Box is the direct OEM replacement mandated for a proper seal. This Cold End Header Box Kit acts as the critical interface between the heat exchanger and the inducer motor, managing the collection and routing of combustion by-products. Measuring approximately 24 inches in length and 8 inches in width, this high-density plastic component is engineered to withstand the acidic nature of furnace condensate, preventing the premature corrosion often seen with aftermarket substitutes. For a professional-grade repair, ensure you're using the included collector box gasket and verifying the pitch of the secondary baffles to maintain head pressure and prevent inducer motor water damage. This genuine Lennox furnace part ensures a precise fit for high-efficiency condensing units, eliminating the common "DIY" risk of stripped threads or cracked housings during furnace collector box replacement.
Key Benefits- OEM Precision: Guaranteed compatibility with specific Lennox condensing furnace models, ensuring all screw holes and ports align perfectly with the orifice plate.
- Enhanced Condensate Management: Prevents acidic water from backing up into the combustion air inducer, protecting the motor bearings and wheel.
- Complete Installation Kit: Includes the necessary collector box gasket and mounting hardware to ensure an airtight and watertight seal.
- Thermal Stability: Constructed from specialized polymers designed to handle the temperature fluctuations at the cold end of the heat exchanger.
How do I know if my collector box is failing?
The most common indicator is water pooling at the base of the furnace or evidence of "rust tracking" beneath the inducer motor. Cracks often form due to over-tightened PVC fittings or freeze-thaw cycles in unconditioned spaces.
Can I use RTV silicone instead of a new gasket?
While high-temp silicone can work in an emergency, the Lennox 17F07 kit includes a specific foam or rubber gasket designed for this flange. Using the correct gasket ensures the pressure switch detects the proper vacuum for safe ignition.
Does this kit include the orifice plate?
This kit is primarily the collector box and gasket. If your orifice plate is warped or corroded, it should be inspected and replaced separately to maintain the correct flue gas velocity.
