Default Condenser fan motor speed

your while to look on that motor for information about it, and phone
around to the electric motor rewinding businesses in your area to see
what they say.

If you have a digital camera, you can e-mail a picture of it to the
motor rebuilding shops, and they might be able to tell if they can
rebuild it just from the picture.

I agree that a small difference in the fan speed won't affect or harm
your heating system.

if its a von weise motor, that company imploded. moved overseas.

parts order time near 2 years minimum order 3 grand or other insane
amount, required prepaid.

how insane is that. grainger quit selling von weise motors when they
made those changes.

the machines i service for a living used von weise motors, and the
motor parts were affordable.

now its all new motors and has cost me big bucks, since the machines i
service are mostly under maintence
