Condensate Tray
The condensate tray under the evaporator coil is broken in half and cracked in a few places. I tried to repair it last summer because I just couldn't find a replacement. Today I went down to the basement and it's leaking again so I know this time when I take the plenum apart and pull out the tray it's going in the trash. I called a Lennox dealer and he said all evaporator coils for the Lennox have a C at the start of the model number so he could not help me. The condensing unit is a Bryant.

The problem I'm having is trying to find the replacement pan. My furnace is a Lennox Whisper Heat
Model - G20Q3/4E-100-7
Serial - 5899M05186

The evaporator coil is made by BDP Company
Model- 507HXX036000MAAA
Serial- Y4D96069

The tray is made by Syracuse Plastic Inc.
Model - 28AU401253

Can anyone here point me in the right direction for a new condensate tray?

Thanks!

Re: Condensate Tray
One of the reasons that folks replace the entire evaporator unit when the pan craps out.

You might try JB Weld for plastic or even a fiberglass repair.

Re: Condensate Tray
I can certainly understand how it would be easier to just drop the whole unit in tray and all but I would rather pay the 265 and not the 500+ for the whole thing. I just picked up some goop glue and I will see how that holds. If no luck I will just get the new tray.
