International Comfort Products PH5542AKA1 Blower Wheel
The blower wheel is a finned-type wheel that is spun around by a motor to produce an airflow throughout an entire home. Once in a while it is also called a squirrel cage because of its remarkable resemblance of an oversized hamster running wheel. Regardless of what you call it, it is still a very necessary device that is necessary for suitable airflow.
Indications that the main blower wheel is going out
- A rattling sound can be heard as the HVAC system starts up
- Much less flow of air through the ducts
- If a little piece of a fin has been dented and it spins lopsided
