Two cruisair blowers in a month...

I bought a replacement blower( complete) from Grainger for a Cruisair 12000. I had to glue some armaflex to it to keep it from sweating but the blower was identical.

I'm in need of a Cruisair 12k blower motor. Any chance you have a Grainger/Dayton part number?

Be careful you are checking the run capacitors

No available except from Dometic.

I purchased this blower assembly from Zoro.com for $177. It was an exact fit and the specs were very close to the Fasco motor that was in the Cruisair unit.

The only difference is that it's a "Permanent Split Capacitor" motor, so it only goes one speed, which is not a big deal for me since it's much quieter.

Funny, indeed. I'm shopping for Fascos tomorrow. Several of them.

I have blowers on 18k BTU evaporators that are working (3) but that I am replacing proactively. The Fascos are OEM only, and technicold has updated the blower style, meaning I have to buy the blower package. New fans now have the motors inside of the squirrel, while old ones hung outside. I assume cooling the fans adds longevity? So I'm forced to replace the whole assembly rather than merely the motors. disappointing, but I'm doing it now while I have an extra hand aboard to visit each air handler for a complete disassemble, clean, and reinstall.

Bottom line is that I'll have some spare blowers of that size on hand within a week or ten. 3 x 18k. 3 x 8k. 1 x 16k

....well, one of those 8's is a rattle can. Perhaps two of them are. The 18's all run well. The 16 is fine, too, I think. It just makes too much sense to do it all while we're familiar with the routine of removal, disassemble, clean, rebuild...

Split knuckles caused by a shady design...

Just found this in a spare parts container, from old cruisair's...

Well, in an emergency, one leg fits all...
