Friedrich VEA18K Blower Wheel
The primary blower wheel has fins all around it and is used to generate airflow throughout a house. It is also called a squirrel cage because of the striking likeness of a very large wheel a hamster would run on. Regardless of what you call it, it is a necessary aspect that is required for proper air circulation.
Simple signals your blower wheel is going out
- If any one of the fins has been damaged and looks unbalanced when it spins
- You find less than normal air going through the vents
- Grinding noise heard when the system ramps up
