Fasco B45227 Blower Motor 115V 1650RPM

The Regal Rexnord - Fasco B45227 Blower Motor is a workhorse designed to efficiently circulate air within residential HVAC systems. Operating on standard household current (115 volts), this single-phase motor offers a capable horsepower rating of likely around 1/8 HP to 1/4 HP (exact information might not be explicitly stated by the manufacturer). It efficiently converts electrical energy into rotational energy, spinning a shaft at a constant speed of 1650 revolutions per minute (RPM). This B45227 motor finds primary use as a blower motor within furnaces and air handling units. The blower motor plays a critical role in ensuring comfort in your home. It works by drawing air into the unit and then pushing it through the ductwork system. In a furnace, for example, the B45227 motor would power the blower fan. This fan would draw air across the hot heat exchanger, warming the air. The now-heated air would then be forced through the ductwork to deliver warmth throughout your living space. Similarly, in an air handling unit, the motor would circulate conditioned air (either heated or cooled) throughout the ductwork system. Replacing a worn-out B45227 motor can significantly improve the performance of your HVAC system. A properly functioning motor ensures efficient airflow circulation. This translates to improved comfort control in your home, as warm or cool air is delivered consistently throughout the various rooms. Additionally, a properly functioning motor can potentially contribute to improved system efficiency by reducing strain on the furnace or air handler. At a weight of around 7.75 pounds, the B45227 is still manageable for handling and installation within compatible HVAC units. Be sure to consult your specific unit's manual for compatibility information before ordering.
