Fasco A244 Motor
The Fasco A244 Draft Inducer Motor is an OEM replacement motor designed for high-static pressure applications, specifically engineered for Rheem and Ruud gas furnaces and boilers. Operating at 208-230 volts and 3300 RPM, this single-speed draft inducer ensures safe combustion by effectively venting flue gases. As a veteran-preferred HVAC blower motor, it features a 0.85 Amp draw and a clockwise lead end rotation (CWLE), providing a direct drop-in fit for 7021-6967 and 70216967 furnace models. This centrifugal blower assembly maintains critical pressure switch tolerances to prevent system lockout. Built by Regal Rexnord, the A244 motor utilizes a durable ball-bearing or sleeve-bearing design (depending on the specific production run) to handle the high-heat environment of a furnace's collector box, ensuring the motor survives demanding duty cycles during the heating season.
Key Benefits for Technicians
- Direct OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed as an exact match for Rheem 7021-6967 inducer assemblies, eliminating the need for mounting modifications.
- Verified Performance: 3300 RPM speed rating ensures the proper CFM and static pressure required to close furnace pressure switches.
- Industrial Build Quality: High-temperature insulation and robust housing construction designed for continuous operation in vented heating applications.
- Simplified Inventory: Replaces multiple Fasco and manufacturer part numbers, reducing the need for universal motor kits.
- Optimized Efficiency: The 0.85 Amp rating provides low power consumption while maintaining maximum torque for heavy-duty draft induction.
Common Questions
Is the Fasco A244 a direct replacement for the 70216967?
Yes, the A244 is the professional-grade OEM replacement motor for the Rheem/Ruud 7021-6967 series. It matches the voltage, RPM, and mounting footprint exactly.
Can this motor be used in 115V systems?
No, this is a 208-230V component. Installing this motor on a 115V circuit will result in failure to start and potential damage to the furnace control board.
Does the assembly include the housing?
The Fasco A244 is typically supplied as the motor only or the motor and wheel assembly; technicians should verify if the existing plastic or metal housing is reusable before beginning the installation.
