Lennox 38K29 Collector Box
The Lennox 38K29 Collector Box (also identified by technical part number LB-89287A) is a critical HVAC replacement part designed specifically for managing condensate and flue gas distribution in high-efficiency Lennox gas furnaces. Built to withstand the corrosive environment of secondary heat exchanger acidic drainage, this condensate collector box measures approximately 31-1/2 x 3-1/8 inches. It serves as the primary interface for the combustion air inducer and ensures that the pressure switch can accurately monitor the draft of the system. This OEM component is frequently utilized in the Lennox G32 series and other compatible condensing units where reliable condensate management is necessary to prevent E228 error codes and water leakage onto the furnace cabinet. As a veteran technician knows, maintaining the integrity of the collector box gasket and ensuring the condensate trap is properly primed are essential steps during a "cold end" header box swap-out to restore peak furnace performance.
Key Benefits- Precision OEM Fit: Ensures direct compatibility with Lennox G32 and high-efficiency models, maintaining the original flue/condensate flow characteristics.
- Engineered Durability: Constructed from heavy-duty materials resistant to the acidic condensate found in condensing gas furnaces.
- Access Port Integration: Features pre-molded ports for pressure switch tubing and inducer motor mounting, simplifying field labor.
- Optimized Drainage: Facilitates correct water flow to the drain trap assembly, preventing moisture buildup in the heat exchanger.
- Does this include the installation gasket? While this is the primary collector box body, it is professional practice to inspect and replace the collector box gasket simultaneously to avoid the common "water leaking from the bottom of the inducer" issue.
- What causes these boxes to fail? Over-torquing screws during an inducer motor replacement or chemical degradation from poor combustion setups can lead to hairline cracks and subsequent pressure signal loss.
- Will this fix an E228 pressure calibration failure? If your diagnostics show a collector box blockage or a leak in the header box that triggers the pressure switch, replacing this component is the industry-standard solution.
