HVAC Blower Motor

AC Blower Motor Replacement

What is the use of Blower Motor?

The Blower motor is a heating and cooling system that transfers airflow from the air conditioner, heat pump, or furnace into the house. It drives heated or cooled air through the ductwork and out the vents in enclosed spaces across the house once the HVAC system has heated or cooled it.

What are the signs of a damaged blower motor?

  • Weak airflow: occurs whenever the blower motor struggles to push sufficient cool air through the vents to reach the appropriate inside temperature.
  • No airflow: This generally indicates that the device is utterly unusable. A competent technician can test the motor to ensure that the lack of airflow isn't caused by something else, such as a defective relay, thermostat, or fan control.
  • High electricity bills: When the blower motor works extra hard to circulate air around your home adequately, you may see higher-than-normal electricity costs.
  • Loud noise: A broken blower motor belt could indicate strange noises, such as squealing or screeching. Loud hammering noises are particularly concerning since they suggest that something is severely damaged.
  • Dirty blower motor: The blower motors can become overheated due to the dirt and filth that collects around them. Burning odors emanating from the vent and the air conditioner system shutdown indicate that overheating is the issue.
