Description
This is a Brand New OEM Upgraded Lennox/Ducane/Armstrong Furance Draft Inducer Motor Assembly. The motor is rated at 120 volt, 1.3A, 3000 RPM, and comes with new gasket material. It replaces the old part numbers listed below.
Function:
An inducer motor is designed to expel the exhaust gas from the furnace. Older inefficient furnaces allowed the flue gas to escape the unit with virtually no resistance. Newer high efficient furnace heat exchangers are so restrictive that the flue gases cannot exit the furnace though “natural draft”. Therefore, the inducer is required to pull the flue gases through the heat exchanger. The inducer motor is usually the first thing that starts up when your furnace calls for heat.
