Lennox 98M88 Draft Inducer Assembly
The Lennox 98M88 Draft Inducer Assembly is a critical OEM replacement component engineered for high-efficiency Lennox furnaces. This assembly, featuring the 100155-01 Combustion Air Inducer Blower, is designed to facilitate the safe and effective purge of combustion by-products through the heat exchanger before ignition. Operating at 203-230V with a robust 1/30 HP motor, it maintains a dedicated 3000 RPM to provide the precise negative pressure required for furnace pressure switches to close. This genuine Lennox part is a direct cross-reference for part numbers 98M8801 and 100155-01, ensuring a drop-in fit for contractors working on 13GCSA and 2SG13B series units. By utilizing an OEM draft inducer motor, technicians can restore the specific CFM requirements of the original system, maintaining factory-spec airflow and preventing common lockout codes related to venting issues.
Key Benefits:
- OEM Precision: Guaranteed compatibility with Lennox HVAC systems, eliminating the mounting and wiring issues common with universal aftermarket blowers.
- High-Speed Venting: The 3000 RPM operation ensures consistent exhaust velocity, which is vital for clearing the heat exchanger and supporting clean combustion.
- Reliable Voltage Range: Optimized for 208-230V AC single-phase electrical systems found in professional residential and light commercial furnace applications.
- Performance Restoration: Replaces noisy, seized, or failing inducer motors to resolve furnace vibration and pressure switch failures.
Common Questions:
Does this assembly include the mounting gasket?
Most Lennox 98M88 assemblies come with the required gasket; however, technicians should always inspect the interface between the inducer and the collector box for a tight seal to prevent CO leaks.
Will this resolve a "pressure switch stuck open" error?
If the existing combustion air inducer blower is failing to reach the necessary 3000 RPM or the wheel is damaged, it will not create enough vacuum to trip the pressure switch. Replacing the unit with this OEM assembly often corrects this sequence-of-operation fault.
Can I replace just the motor instead of the whole assembly?
While some motors are sold separately, the 100155-01 is best serviced as a complete assembly to ensure the housing integrity and wheel balance are maintained for quiet, safe operation.
