The Bard 168-033 flue part collector box is an OEM venting component used on select Bard wall mounted gas heating sections to gather combustion flue gases from the heat exchanger area and route them correctly into the unit venting path. A damaged or leaking collector box can contribute to poor draft, nuisance limit trips, or unsafe combustion byproducts escaping inside the cabinet, so replacing it with the correct Bard factory part helps restore proper exhaust flow and safe furnace operation. Confirm the exact model and serial range of your Bard wall mount unit before ordering, since collector box designs vary by heating size and configuration and must match the original for proper fit and sealing.
