Heat Controller VMH18SC-1 Blower Wheel
The main blower wheel is the primary device that is spun around by a motor to generate airflow throughout a residence. It is also called a squirrel cage because of the obvious similarity to that of a wheel that a pet hamster may use for exercise. Regardless of what you call it, it is definitely an important device that is necessary for proper air circulation.
Signs of a faulty blower wheel
- Much less airflow coming from the vents
- If a part of the cage has broken off and it does not spin correctly
- A thumping noise is audible as the system ramps up
