Ao Smith D1026 Dual Wheel Blower Motor 1/4 Hp

Product Description

The AO SMITH D1026 is a dual wheel blower motor rated at 1/4 horsepower, designed for use in forced-air heating and cooling systems. This motor drives a dual-shaft configuration that supports blower wheels on both ends, allowing it to move air through an air handler or furnace cabinet. HVAC technicians install this motor as a direct replacement in residential and light commercial equipment where a compact, reliable blower drive is required.

This motor is suited for residential forced-air systems and light commercial air-handling applications. It is typically found in furnace blower compartments and standalone air handler units where dual-wheel operation is specified. Installers working on older or mid-range equipment often select this motor when the original unit fails and an exact-style replacement is needed.

• Dual wheel shaft configuration supports blower wheels on both ends for balanced airflow delivery
• 1/4 HP output appropriate for residential and light commercial blower assemblies
• OEM-style replacement design for straightforward swaps in compatible equipment
• Compact motor frame suited for furnace and air handler blower compartments
