Customer Questions
What maintenance is required for the Rheem-Ruud 68-23643-01 Inducer Blower Gasket?

Inspect the gasket during inducer service to ensure it remains flexible and properly seated between mating surfaces. Clean both contact faces to remove soot or debris that could compromise sealing. Replace the gasket if any compression damage, cracking, or heat hardening is visible to maintain better draft containment.

What are common issues with the Rheem-Ruud 68-23643-01 Inducer Blower Gasket?

  • Loss of sealing integrity from heat exposure.
  • Cracking or tearing during disassembly.
  • Exhaust leakage at the blower interface.
  • Compression set causing uneven sealing pressure.
  • Misalignment leading to improper fit and airflow loss.

Installation Steps

Step 1: Turn off power and gas supply to the furnace, allow unit to cool completely for safety.

Step 2: Remove access panel and locate inducer blower assembly, noting gasket position before removal.

Step 3: Disconnect inducer housing, carefully remove old gasket, and clean sealing surfaces thoroughly.

Step 4: Install new gasket, align properly, and reassemble blower securely without over-tightening.

Step 5: Restore power and gas, then test furnace operation for leaks or unusual noise.
