Lennox 12K98 Induced Draft Blower
The Lennox 12K98 Induced Draft Blower is an essential OEM replacement inducer motor assembly designed to maintain precise negative pressure within the combustion chamber. Operating at 208-230V and 3000 RPM, this single-phase component is engineered to facilitate the safe expulsion of flue gases, ensuring the pressure switch proves the circuit for the ignition sequence. This Lennox 104070-01 blower features a rugged steel housing and a high-efficiency 1/50 HP motor, providing the combustion air necessary for high-performance furnace operations.
Built for durability in demanding environments, the 12K98 draft inducer serves as a direct drop-in for numerous Lennox, Armstrong, and Ducane models. The balanced squirrel cage impeller minimizes harmonic vibration, while the compact frame allows for tight integration during field installs. For technicians troubleshooting HVAC inducer motor failure or loud grinding noises, this assembly restores factory-spec airflow and helps prevent furnace lockout codes associated with improper venting or restricted heat exchangers.
Key Benefits for the Contractor:
- Optimized Combustion: Precision blades ensure a consistent draft inducer draw, maximizing heat exchanger efficiency.
- Direct OEM Fit: Replaces Lennox 12K98 and 104070-01 without the need for mounting bracket modifications.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: High-grade steel housing resists corrosion from condensation typically found in high-efficiency furnaces.
- Quiet Operation: Engineering focuses on decreasing decibel levels during the initial startup cycle.
Common Technical Questions:
Is the 12K98 115V or 230V?
This specific model is rated for 208-230V, 60Hz. Always verify the voltage at the leads from the control board before installation.
Will this resolve a "pressure switch stuck open" error?
If the existing motor is seized or failing to reach 3000 RPM, it cannot generate the required water column pressure. Installing a new 12K98 assembly typically resolves these draft-related issues.
Does it include the mounting gasket?
Standard OEM kits include the integrated housing; it is recommended to apply high-temp RTV silicone or a new gasket to ensure a gas-tight seal against the collector box.
