Kenmore 583356000 Blower Wheel
The blower wheel is like a squirrel cage that is attached to the main blower motor, which is used to provide air circulation to an entire house. You may also see it named a squirrel cage due to the understandable resemblance to that of a wheel that a pet hamster may use for exercise. Regardless of what you call it, it is a very vital contraption of any system that needs suitable airflow.
Signs to watch for in a failing main blower wheel
- If a piece of the cage has been dented and seems unbalanced when it turns
- A thumping noise is noticed when the system starts
- Lowered flow of air through the vents
