Lennox 17F08 Collector Box
The Lennox 17F08 Collector Box, identified as part number 619598-15, is a critical OEM cold end header engineered for high-efficiency Lennox EL296 Series furnaces. As a primary component of the condensing heat exchanger system, this condensate collector box manages the transition of flue gases and the drainage of acidic condensate. To prevent pressure switch trips or secondary heat exchanger failure, a precise fit is mandatory. This furnace replacement part is manufactured to exact factory tolerances, ensuring airtight seals and proper pitch for fluid evacuation. Field technicians should verify the integrity of the collector box gasket during installation to maintain combustion safety and AHRI-rated furnace efficiency. Whether you are addressing a cracked collector box or performing a full EL296 furnace repair, using a genuine Lennox 17F08 ensures compatibility with the secondary heat exchanger assembly without the need for field modifications.
Key Benefits for Contractors
- Direct OEM Fit: Specifically engineered for Lennox EL296UHE and EL296DFE models, eliminating indexing issues found in aftermarket alternatives.
- Enhanced Condensate Drainage: Optimized internal geometry prevents moisture backup, protecting the inducer motor and pressure switches.
- Thermal Stability: Constructed from high-grade heat-resistant polymer to withstand the rigors of cyclic condensed flue gas exposure.
- Complete System Integrity: Restores factory-spec airflow and combustion byproduct channeling to help prevent furnace rollout or CO leaks.
Common Technical Questions
What are the symptoms of a failing Lennox 17F08 collector box?
Common indicators include water leakage at the base of the furnace, pressure switch lockout codes (often related to the cold end header), or visible cracks in the plastic housing caused by thermal stress or excessive vibration.
Does this part include the installation hardware or gaskets?
The Lennox 17F08 is the collector box assembly. Technicians should inspect the existing mounting screws and the header box gasket; if the gasket is compressed or brittle, it must be replaced to ensure a proper seal against the heat exchanger.
Can this be used on other Lennox Elite series models?
This part is specifically cataloged for EL296 series furnaces. To ensure furnace part compatibility, always check the technical data plate on the furnace cabinet for the specific model and serial number before installation.
