Carrier Bryant LA11ZD058 Inducer Motor Fan Blower Wheel

Thank you thank you! No heat since last Tuesday due to the fan breaking, ordered this on Tuesday night received on Friday afternoon, worked perfectly!

It is recommended that these are replaced with the motor as the plastic does get brittle and the part is old and more prone to failure. This new one seemed to be of a higher quality or denser plastic.The old motor was getting hot to the touch. And what I was told was the ceramic bearing had been screeching for years. This motor solved the problem. I have also been told that the original motors in this type of furnace are the first thing to go about it because of the initial surge required to get them going. More modern furnace motors that function as the inducer motor have a step up system whereby the motor comes to speed in a serious of steps and thereby eliminates the "surge heat"Also the most modern furnaces have a variable speed like function to them.The thing to remember is that when you replace this motor also replace the blower wheel on it. Now here is what most people will never understand about centrifuge fans; They are blowers that are enclosed in housings with an air inlet and an air outlet port. If the blower wheel is not placed on the critical dimension from the side of the fan housing closest to the motor, as defined in the instruction manual, that blower fan can cavitate air inside of it (the same principal of being caught under the base of a waterfall) and when this happens it can lead to inefficient air quality and also poor furnace efficiency.Essentially it means that air is not blowing through the blower housing but instead escaping the function of the blower motor by creating a cavitation air pocket.If you have a man regularly service your furnace and he removes this blower fan to look at it make sure that he reinstalls it at the critical dimension. If you look on the arbor coming out of the motor and see that it has been scored from the set key in different critical dimension lengths it means that at least one of them was not correct. And it is impossible to know whether it was the original furnace setting or the man who came to yearly inspect your furnace who mis-set the critical dimension. So before you take the blower fan off measure that critical dimension when you have it separated from the clam shell housing, to see if it is currently correct.The air in your home will be much fresher when you get this right.The old motor was very hot to the touch, So much so that you could not hold onto it. Also when that furnace inspection man comes to your house make sure that he plugs the Electrical connector for this motor ALL THE WAY back into its housing for if he doesn't it creates a lack of current to the motor that heats up the motor to failure!This new one does not get hot!"We are all in this together!" a quote from the movie Brazil.And if you have no competence with regard to mechanical ability don't pretend you understand things you don't. Don't tamper with your furnace but make sure to ask questions.Copyright 2013 Thomas Paul Murphy

Delivered on time as promised. Exact fit. Price was fair and reasonable. Very satisfied with entire process.

This fan blade worked great!!Looks factory new.

installed and works great

fit perfectly exactly as described

May be "2nd choice" sort in Quality Control. OEM packaging but fan hub is off balance and therefore vibrates and is noisy. Replaced with new fan from local dealer and no vibration.

It works
