Lennox 17L41 Mount
The Lennox 17L41 Blower Motor Mount is a heavy-duty OEM replacement part designed for belt-drive blower systems in residential and commercial air handlers. Engineered as a pivot mount with a plate assembly configuration, this component provides the structural stability required to maintain precise motor alignment under high-torque conditions. The 17L41 (replaces Lennox 17L40 and LB-89289D) allows for critical motor positioning adjustments, ensuring optimal belt tension and reducing parasitic vibration that can lead to premature bearing failure or localized resonance within the blower housing.
Constructed from high-grade, corrosion-resistant steel, this 17-lb mount is built to withstand demanding mechanical loads in Lennox HVAC systems. The universal fit accommodates standard belt drive motors, facilitating a secure installation that protects both the blower wheel and the motor shaft from operational stress. Whether you are performing a Lennox furnace repair or upgrading an existing blower assembly, this mount ensures the rigid support necessary for efficient airflow and system longevity in legacy and modern furnace models, including those manufactured as far back as 1962.
Key Benefits:
- Precision Motor Alignment: The pivot mount design allows technicians to fine-tune the motor position for perfect belt tracking.
- Industrial-Grade Stability: Reduces noise and mechanical wear by providing a heavy-duty motor base that dampens operational vibrations.
- Broad Compatibility: An official Lennox OEM part that serves as a direct drop-in replacement for part numbers 17L40 and LB-89289D.
- Rugged Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant finish to prevent rust in high-moisture air handling environments.
Common Questions:
What Lennox models is the 17L41 compatible with?
This mount is utilized across a wide range of Lennox air handlers and furnaces, including RC36, RC49, and modulation gas furnace series. It is specifically designed for belt-driven blower assemblies where a plate-style pivot base is required.
Does this mount help with blower motor vibration issues?
Yes. By securing the motor to a rigid steel plate assembly, it prevents the motor from shifting during startup and operation, effectively eliminating vibration-induced noise and protecting the internal blower assembly components.
Is the 17L41 a direct replacement for the 17L40?
Correct. The 17L41 is the current Lennox replacement part for the older 17L40, providing the same mounting footprint and pivot functionality for easier field installation.
