Nordyne 1003442 Inducer Assembly

The Nordyne 1003442 Inducer Assembly is a genuine OEM draft motor kit engineered for high-static pressure applications in 80% AFUE gas furnaces. This assembly serves as the direct Nordyne 904799 replacement, offering an updated design to improve combustion air delivery and venting efficiency. Built to withstand the thermal stress of high-cycle heating demands, this 115V, 60Hz unit operates with a dual-speed capability of 3300/2400 RPM, ensuring precise manifold pressure and proper intake/exhaust balance. For technicians servicing Nortek, Miller, or Intertherm equipment, this HVAC draft inducer motor provides a exact fit for G7TC series furnaces, including the G7TC100D, G7TC060D, and G7TC080D models. Utilizing a genuine Nortek 1003442 part ensures the pressure switch trip points remain within factory specifications, preventing nuisance soft-lockouts and ensuring consistent ignition sequences across all compatible Nordyne furnace parts.

Common Questions

Is the 1003442 a direct replacement for the 904799 inducer?
Yes, the 1003442 is the official manufacturer update for the 904799. It features the same mounting footprint and electrical connections for a plug-and-play installation in compatible Nordyne and Nortek air handlers.

How do I know if my inducer motor is failing?
Common indicators include high-pitched bearing noise, vibration during the pre-purge cycle, or a pressure switch error code on your furnace control board. If the motor fails to reach the required RPM, the furnace will not initiate the burner sequence.

Does this assembly include the cooling fan and housing?
Yes, this is a complete inducer assembly, including the motor, blower wheel, and the specialized housing required to maintain the airtight integrity of the exhaust system.
