I have a 2000 Duo Therm brisk air ac unit and I need to replace the motor and blower wheel. How do I get the blower out of the blower housing? Is there a way to remove the housing?
Thanks for the replies. After thinking about for a very short time I'm just going to replace the old unit (15 yrs old). It is a 13,500. Should I go up to a 15,000 or stay with the 13,500 when replacing it? Its only like 1.3 amps and 2 pounds difference and I live in Florida.
My unit you could not replace the motor and fan. Had to replace the whole AC unit so I replaced it with a 15,000 btu unit instead of the normal 13,500. Unit was 11 years old and it was really out of balance.
If you must change the inside blower squirrel cage, you must move the evaporator out of the way- just be careful to not kink the copper lines. Also make note of the screws as you remove them- I don't think there are any short screws on a Brisk Air, but sometimes there will be one, and it has to go back in the original hole (because it was short for a reason).
