Carrier HD42AQ251 1/3HP Blower Motor 1050 RPM 208-230V

The Carrier HD42AQ251 is a workhorse blower motor designed for residential HVAC systems, specifically air conditioners and furnaces. This electric motor (likely weighs around 8lbs) plays a critical role in air circulation. It operates on a standard 208-230 volt electrical circuit and efficiently spins at 1050 RPM (revolutions per minute) thanks to its 1/3 horsepower rating. This ensures adequate airflow throughout the system at 60Hz, the standard electrical frequency in North America. By efficiently moving air across the evaporator coil (in an air conditioner) or the heat exchanger (in a furnace), the Carrier HD42AQ251 motor helps maintain comfortable temperatures in your home. Efficient air circulation also contributes to optimal system performance and potentially lower energy bills.
