Hi,
A friend has a Kaussmann heat pump in her home. It produces a noticeable but not loud whine.
Heated air is dispersed by a centrifugal fan with squirrel cage about
80 cm long x 9 cm diameter. The blades are about 1 cm wide and 10 cm long. 10 cm x 8 segments = 80 cm.One of the blades is missing from the rightmost segment of the squirrel cage and that may be the source of the whine.
According to the owner, Kaussmann is defunct. Any ideas about repair?
Thanks, ... P.
No promises.... Try
Thanks Jim.
Apology for my duplicated message. I had a bit of trouble with the news client here.
Thx, ... P.
That missing blade might be correct. It could be that there is a set screw holding the squirrel cage assembly to the fan motor shaft accessible where (and because) the blade is missing. I'm speculating, not sure.
