Carrier 50TM004 Blower Wheel
The primary blower wheel is like a squirrel cage that is attached to the main blower motor, which is used to produce an airflow throughout a residence. It is sometimes called a squirrel cage because of its unusual alikeness of a very large wheel a hamster would run on. No matter what you call it, it is a necessary part of an air handling system that calls for a good amount of airflow.
Key clues to watch for in a bad blower wheel assembly
- If a piece of the cage has been damaged and it causes a lot of vibration
- You notice a lowered flow of air from the system
- A rattling sound is heard as the system begins
