Fasco A178 Blower

The Fasco A178 Blower is a critical OEM replacement draft inducer engineered for high-performance extraction in gas-fired furnaces and heating equipment. Operating at a fixed 3400 RPM, this 1/30 HP shaded pole motor provides the high-velocity airflow required to clear combustion gazeous byproducts, ensuring safe and efficient system operation. Designed specifically for compatibility with Intercity Products (ICP), it serves as a direct drop-in for common part numbers including 7021-10928 and 10113388FA. This single-speed unit runs on standard 115V power at 1.8 Amps, featuring a 3.3-inch diameter motor frame and internal thermal protection to prevent overheating during continuous duty cycles.

Constructed with durable sealed ball bearings, the Fasco A178 is built for longevity in high-ambient environments up to 104°F. The assembly includes a plastic blower housing with a 1-3/4 inch inlet and a 2-3/8 inch round outlet, optimized for precise static pressure management. For contractors performing a field replacement, this centrifugal blower facilitates a direct electrical connection via 10-inch wire leads with spade terminals. To ensure a gas-tight seal and prevent CO leaks, technicians should verify the condition of the mounting gasket or apply high-temp silicone during the install. This Fasco inducer motor is a reliable solution for restoring inducer fan performance in residential and light commercial HVAC units.

Key Benefits
  • Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered to match ICP 7021-10928 specifications for a seamless fit.
  • Enhanced Durability: Features ball bearings and Class B insulation for extended service life under high heat.
  • Safety Integrated: Built-in thermal overload protection automatically resets to prevent motor burnout.
  • High-Speed Performance: Delivers consistent 3400 RPM to maintain necessary flue vacuum levels.
  • Standardized Power: Operates on 115V AC, making it compatible with standard furnace control boards.
Common Questions

What furnace brands does the Fasco A178 fit?
This blower is primarily designed for Intercity Products, which include brands such as Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire. Always cross-reference the 7021-10928 number on your existing inducer label.

Does this unit include the mounting gasket?
While the motor is a direct replacement, it is highly recommended to use a new gasket or Permatex Gasket Maker during installation to ensure a proper airtight seal on the collector box.

Can I use this motor to replace a different RPM rating?
No. Induced draft blowers must match the original RPM and amperage specs to ensure the pressure switch closes correctly and the furnace fires safely.
