International Comfort Products GUM Blower Wheel
The blower wheel is like a squirrel cage that is attached to the main blower motor, which is used to produce a steady airflow through an entire house. It is sometimes called a squirrel cage due to its resemblance to that of a hamster wheel. However you decide to name it, it is definitely an important piece of equipment of any HVAC system that needs proper air pressure within the ductwork.
What happens when my blower wheel most likely is about to go out?
- If a little piece of a fin has been malformed and it does not spin correctly
- You notice quite a bit less airflow overall
- Grinding sound heard as the motor begins to turn
