Whirlpool ATE0953RPP0 Blower Wheel
The blower wheel has fins all around it and is spun around by a motor to generate airflow throughout all the ducts. It is occasionally called a squirrel cage because of its remarkable likeness of a very large wheel a hamster would run on. Whatever you decide to call it, it is still a crucial part of an air handling system that calls for proper air pressure within the ductwork.
What symptoms are present when the main blower wheel really needs to be replaced?
- If any of the fins has been smashed and it spins lopsided
- Rattling noise can be heard when the system ramps up
- You find much less air coming out of the vents
