International Comfort Products C8MPT050B12B1 Blower Wheel
A blower wheel is attached to the blower motor and is used to produce a steady airflow through an entire house. It is also named a squirrel cage due to the slight semblance to that of a wheel that a pet hamster may use for exercise. However you decide to name it, it is definitely an important part of a heating and cooling system that needs proper air circulation.
Major indications blower wheel assembly is failing
- If any one of the fins has been smashed and it wobbles when spinning
- You see less than usual air coming out of the vents
- Grinding sound is audible when the system ramps up
