Fasco A179 Motor
The Fasco A179 Motor is the industry-standard 115v 1sp draft inducer motor designed specifically for Intercity Products (ICP), Heil, and Quaker heating systems. As a direct replacement for 82672, 1006168, and Packard 82672, this shaded pole motor ensures your furnace maintains the precise static pressure required for safe combustion venting. Operating at 3300 RPM with a 0.9 Amp draw, the Fasco A179 features a clockwise rotation (CWSE) and a 3.3-inch frame, making it a drop-in solution for furnace draft inducer replacement. The open air-over design and sleeve bearing construction are engineered to withstand the high-heat environments of flue gas exhaust. For technicians performing HVAC inducer motor troubleshooting, the A179 includes a rectangular outlet and no flange, ensuring a secure fit when paired with high-temp sealant. This 1/60 HP Intercity draft inducer motor is UL recognized and CSA certified, providing a 7021-8693 alternative that restores OEM-level airflow and pressure switch performance.
Key Benefits- Direct OEM Cross-Reference: Engineered as the exact replacement for ICP 7021-8693 and 1006168P to eliminate mounting struggles.
- Optimized Performance: The 3300 RPM single-speed motor delivers consistent CFM to ensure proper venting of combustion by-products.
- Reliable Construction: Features thermally protected shaded pole technology and a durable Class B insulation rating for 104°F ambient environments.
- Broad Compatibility: Serves as a high-performance 82672 motor alternative for residential gas furnaces and water heaters.
What are the signs of a failing Fasco A179 motor?
Contractors typically identify a failing inducer by loud screeching or grinding (bearing wear), a humming sound without spinning (seized shaft), or a pressure switch trip preventing ignition due to insufficient RPM.
Does this motor include the necessary installation hardware?
The A179 is frequently supplied with a replacement gasket and high-temp sealant to ensure an airtight seal between the motor housing and the heat exchanger collector box.
Can I use an "equivalent" motor with different RPM specs?
No. Using a motor with incorrect RPM or rotation will lead to improper vacuum pressure, causing safety pressure switch failures and potentially dangerous carbon monoxide buildup.
