I have an older Sears 15 gas furnace with air conditioning. The only info I can find on the air handler is the sears fifteen, no other model or serial. My blower wheel is falling apart. I have the dimensions of the original wheel (10 1/4" dia, 8" width with a 1/2" bore. Local shops want more info (mod. And ser.#) to order one. Any sugestions? Thanks

If its out or you can remove it take it with you to a hvac supply house,, they should be able to match it up,, only prob. I see is some/most won`t sell to non-contractors,, you may need to get a contractor to get it for you

It's out. I took it to my shop and tac welded the hub back togather. Helped for awhile. I know of several supply houses that sell to the public but many items won't be warrantied unless installed by a licensed tech. The problem is this appears to be a nonstandard wheel. Sears doesn't supply it any more and one supply house and one contractor I spoke with said they may be able to order it. They both said to expect to pay A lot for it. Due to the curent economy, I'm not working much on either job and need to save as much as possible. Like most people, I was looking for an easy answer. I'll keep trying though. Thanks for your help.
