Abstract: A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system including a heat exchanger assembly and a refrigerant collection device. The refrigerant collection device has a body axially aligned with a perimeter of the heat exchanger assembly. The body has at least one channel formed therein to capture a refrigerant and direct the captured refrigerant to a detection location of the body.

Abstract: An attachment between a heat exchanger and a cell panel of a furnace includes a cell panel including a plurality of cell panel openings and a heat exchanger having a plurality of cells. Each cell has a cell outlet insertable into a cell panel opening of the plurality of cell panel openings. A compressible gasket is insertable between the cell panel openings and the cell outlets and securable therein when the heat exchanger is secured to the cell panel. A crimping tool for securing a heat exchanger cell outlet to a cell panel of a furnace includes a male portion including a split die having two die halves and a die expander configured to separate the two die halves to engage an inner surface of the cell outlet. A female portion applies a force to the cell outlet to crimp the cell outlet to the cell panel.
