Whirlpool ATR1552CPP0 Blower Wheel
The main blower wheel is like a squirrel cage that is attached to the main blower motor, which is used in order to provide air circulation to all the ducts. It is occasionally called a squirrel cage because of the noticeable semblance to that of an oversized hamster exercise wheel. No matter what you call it, it is still a crucial part of any heating or cooling systems that requires proper air pressure within the ductwork.
Subtle hints that your blower wheel is going to die
- If any one of the fins has been smashed and it spins lopsided
- You see lowered air flow in the house
- A clanking sound is heard as the system ramps up
