Carrier 48SX024-060 Blower Wheel
The main blower wheel is finned and is used to produce an airflow throughout all the ductwork of a home. It is sometimes called a squirrel cage due to the understandable likeness to that of a wheel that a pet hamster may use for exercise. Whatever you want to call it, it is still a very necessary device of any heating or cooling systems that requires proper air circulation.
Subtle cues of a failing blower wheel cage

- You discover a lot less airflow lately
- If a part of the cage has been smashed and it wobbles when spinning
