Squealing Furnace

Blower motor # 31036

I'm a very light sleeper and I guarantee this squeal will have me awake every time the furnace kicks on.

Its 22 years old, so I bit the bullet and bought a new blower motor. There are a couple threads here and on other sites on how to replace it, Looks like maybe a two hour job.

I see many companies have them, I Paid just under $100 with shipping included.

This should be the last of the major expenses for the ToyHouse Overhaul.

Hey John,

I just last week put one in my Suburban. $106 I think it cost. Make sure the sail switch does not touch any of the blade . I didn't and mine makes 1 ping sound as the first blade hits it before it moves out of the way.

Hmmm I assume <--- key word, yours has a sail switch. Just a mistake I made wanted to let ya know incase you have the same.

Have a great day
