Bard part number 9043-104 is an OEM draft diverter specified for Bard ESG050D36 natural draft furnace applications, used at the vent outlet to help stabilize the draft and reduce the effect of room air currents on flue flow for more consistent combustion venting. Replacing a damaged or corroded diverter helps restore proper venting performance and can prevent nuisance rollout or draft issues that may show up as sooting, odor, or safety switch trips. Since draft diverters are model-specific for correct sizing and alignment, confirm your furnace model and vent configuration before ordering, and install per the Bard service literature to maintain safe clearances and correct venting.
