I agree with you there Nic. I had the pleasure of touring the plant a couple years back, they've got a couple of crazy scientists working in R&D. I work on a lot of their equipment and it's by far my favorite. For the most part they just work.

Its a wash when you consider labor time to dissasemble with wd 40 sand paped and a puller.

That's ugly......

Engineered Air

Is that a Carrier? I've seen it happen once on a brand new carrier.

We sold start up and warranty.

dang ... at least the parts are warrantied . . . any labor allowance ?

It is brand new, started up in November. Bearing failed, wore away at the shaft enough for the blower to snag on the housing. 2 pillow blocks, blower wheel and shaft change for me next week.

Looks brand new . .

D'oh

That sucks!
