Carrier LA660001 Blower Wheel
The Carrier LA660001 Blower Wheel is a precision-engineered OEM replacement part designed for high-static applications in Carrier, Bryant, and Payne commercial and residential HVAC systems. Measuring 15.5" diameter by 15" width, this squirrel cage blower wheel features a 1-inch bore and a double hub design, making it fully reversible for versatile rotation requirements. It serves as the direct LA22LA131 replacement and is also compatible with older part numbers including LA248276 and P441-1325. Built from heavy-duty galvanized steel, this wheel ensures optimal airflow delivery and balanced operation, critical for maintaining system static pressure and motor efficiency. Technicians frequently utilize the LA660001 in 48HCF and 50TCQ series rooftop units and large-tonnage air handlers to restore factory-spec air distribution. The robust construction minimizes vibration, extending the service life of the blower motor and drive assembly in demanding environments.
