Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100112656 Inducer Assembly

Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100112656 Inducer Assembly

The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100112656 Inducer Assembly is a critical OEM replacement component designed for high-efficiency GPVL series gas water heaters. As a veteran-grade draft inducer motor, this assembly is engineered to maintain precise combustion airflow by drawing exhaust gases through the heat exchanger and out the vent. Operating at a fixed speed of 3350 RPM with a 115V power requirement, it is factory-calibrated to a .27" WC pressure rating. This 7-slot blower configuration ensures optimal static pressure, preventing backdrafts and ensuring safe, consistent ignition cycles in residential and light commercial applications.

When diagnosing HVAC ventilation issues, replacing a seized or noisy vent blower with this genuine 100112656 assembly restores factory-spec performance. This unit is the direct replacement for older part numbers like 9008265005, providing a seamless drop-in fit for Power Vent (PVN050) models. The inclusion of the centrifugal blower and motor as a complete inducer assembly minimizes field labor and guarantees that the internal wheel balance meets technical specifications for vibration-free operation.

Key Benefits:
  • Direct OEM Compatibility: Specifically engineered for Lochinvar and A.O. Smith GPVL NG/LP models.
  • Optimized Combustion: Delivers a consistent .27" WC to ensure the pressure switch closes reliably every cycle.
  • High-Speed Efficiency: The 3350 RPM motor provides the necessary torque for rapid exhaust gas removal.
  • Plug-and-Play Installation: 115V assembly replaces 100112656 and 9008265005 without housing modifications.
Common Questions:
  • What causes a draft inducer assembly to fail? Bearings typically wear out over time due to heat exposure, leading to high-pitched whining or a failure to reach 3350 RPM, which prevents the pressure switch from closing.
  • Can I replace just the motor? We recommend replacing the entire 100112656 assembly to ensure the 7-slot blower wheel is balanced and the housing seal remains airtight.
  • Is this compatible with LP gas water heaters? Yes, this inducer blower is rated for use with both Natural Gas and Liquid Propane (LP) GPVL series units.
