Carrier 38YZA042 Blower Wheel
The blower wheel is commonly finned and is used in order to produce a steady airflow through an entire house. It is also called a squirrel cage due to the likeness to that of a hamster wheel. No matter what you call it, it is a necessary device of an air handling system that calls for proper air pressure within the ductwork.
Red flags that the main blower wheel is going out
- You observe less than usual airflow in the home
- Clanking sound can be heard as the HVAC system starts up
- If any part of the wheel has broken off and looks unbalanced when it spins
