It operates on 115 volts and draws 0.85 amps, with a 2-speed design running at 3400 RPM on high and 2400 RPM on low. The motor uses a ball bearing construction for reliable long-term operation. Clockwise (CW) rotation is standard. This assembly is installed by licensed HVAC technicians during routine furnace maintenance, component replacement, or system restoration when the original inducer motor has failed or shows signs of reduced airflow performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis draft inducer blower is suited for residential gas furnace installations where induced-draft combustion is required. It is commonly found in Rheem and Ruud branded furnace equipment and serves as a direct OEM-style replacement for failed or worn inducer assemblies. The 2-speed capability allows the furnace control board to match inducer speed to the current firing stage or call for heat, supporting proper combustion airflow across operating conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-speed operation: 3400 RPM high and 2400 RPM low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall bearing motor construction for extended service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClockwise (CW) rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e115 volt single-phase input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.85 amp draw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for OEM part numbers 70-24206-01, 70-24206-02, 7062-3925S, 7062-5272, and Rheem-Ruud 7062-3925\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirect replacement for OEM part numbers 70-24206-01, 70-24206-02, 7062-3925S, 7062-5272, and Rheem-Ruud 7062-3925 as stated in manufacturer cross-reference data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDraft inducer blower replacement is performed by licensed HVAC technicians.
