Fasco A158 Blower Motor
Ensure seamless combustion cycles with the Fasco A158 Blower Motor, a professional-grade 115V draft inducer assembly designed for exact-drop replacement in Amana and Goodman furnace systems. Operating at 3450 RPM, this 1-speed PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor delivers a rated 75 CFM to maintain critical static pressure for safe flu gas exhaustion. Built with a 3.3-inch diameter frame and resilient sleeve bearings, the Fasco A158 is engineered for high-cycle industrial reliability in residential heating applications.
This unit serves as the direct cross-reference for OEM part numbers 2000010, 7062-2767, and 7062-3151. The assembly features a 4-3/4" x 1-3/4" blower wheel and a clockwise (CW) rotation as viewed from the shaft end. Utilizing 0.7 amps, the HVAC inducer motor includes a 4 MFD x 370V capacitor required for optimal torque and efficiency. When diagnosing failing assemblies, contractors should prioritize checking for seized bearings or capacitor drift to prevent nuisance limit switch tripping.

Common Questions
What are the signs of a failing Fasco A158 motor?
Technicians typically report screeching or grinding noises indicating bearing wear, or a humming sound without rotation, often signaling a failed start capacitor or seized blower wheel.
Does this unit replace the 7062-3151 model?
Yes, the Fasco A158 is the primary aftermarket replacement for the 7062-3151, 7062-2767, and D98686-7 components found in many mid-efficiency furnaces.
Is the mounting gasket included with the assembly?
Gaskets are sold separately; it is a standard best practice for contractors to use a high-temperature silicone or new gasket to ensure a leak-proof seal during installation.
