Really george? You know anything about variable speed/frequency drives?
Have
a clue about what they cost? Didn't think so.....and yes they are in
average
homes we even have them in apt.buildings. It's ok to offer your opinion
george just try not to imply that it is fact or for that matter that you
have a clue about what you are attempting to discuss.......fair?

Haven't followed the thread too well, but did the original poster say it was
a variable speed motor?

If so, I see why the cost was so high!

Those damn things aren't cheap. Even the module itself costs more than most
motors do......

It's a 13 year old Carrier High-efficiency furnace. The motor and
labor

was $310.
This seemed like a lot to me. I didn't say so.
What do you think, was she over charged??



Maybe, maybe not.
We just replaced a furnace for a customer because the blower motor went
out.
Our cost for the motor was $800!!

Obviously not an average house.
