York S1-026-32088-003 Wheel
The York S1-026-32088-003 is a precision-engineered OEM furnace blower wheel designed for high-static pressure applications in York, Coleman, and Luxaire air handlers. This centrifugal blower wheel features a 12-inch diameter and 11.5-inch width, providing the necessary cubic feet per minute (CFM) to maintain system efficiency. With a 1/2-inch bore size, this wheel mounts directly to standard motor shafts, ensuring a secure fit and reducing vibration-induced fatigue on the motor bearings. The clockwise (CW) rotation is critical for proper airflow direction within the blower housing—technicians should verify rotation from the shaft end before installation to prevent high-limit trips or insufficient heat exchange. Constructed for durability in demanding residential and light commercial environments, this squirrel cage fan replacement addresses common issues such as blade deformation and excessive noise. Utilizing a genuine Source1 HVAC part ensures that the balance and pitch of the blades meet the exact specifications of the original equipment, preserving the static pressure performance of the furnace or modular blower.
Key Benefits
- Optimized Airflow: The 12" x 11.5" dimensions are calibrated to deliver precise CFM, maintaining the temperature rise across the heat exchanger.
- Vibration Reduction: Factory-balanced construction prevents premature wear on the blower motor and cabinet rattling.
- Direct Fitment: Eliminates the need for shaft adapters or housing modifications by matching original 1/2-inch bore specs.
- Broad Compatibility: Acts as a direct replacement for multiple York and Coleman blower wheel part numbers used in modular air handlers.
Common Questions
How do I determine the rotation of the S1-026-32088-003?
This wheel is rated for clockwise (CW) rotation. To verify correctly, look at the wheel from the hub/shaft side; the blades must be oriented to move air efficiently in that specific direction.
What happens if I install a blower wheel with a different width?
Using a wheel that does not match the 11.5-inch width can lead to bypass air or physical interference with the blower housing, resulting in reduced system efficiency or mechanical failure.
Is this wheel compatible with X13 or ECM motors?
Yes, as long as the motor features a 1/2-inch shaft and the system’s original specifications call for a wheel of these exact dimensions and rotation.
