Many HVAC parts are available from Amazon. I know they sell FASCO inducers as well as showing cross-references for proper application. Reading the customer reviews might also give the OP a better idea if replacement is something he is comfortable with.

Good replies that I would totally agree with, especially the damage that can be done from icicles and ice slides off the roof. One issue not mentioned is that when a full cover is used it not only holds moisture it makes the perfect habitat area for small rodents. Each year doing clean and...

Yes, that is the collector box. When you install the new one you should be using high temperature red silicone caulk to get a moisture/pressure seal. If you damaged your inducer gasket when you took it off it can usually be applied there as well for a pressure seal. I think there might even...

Regarding your question in post #8. If your refering to the plastic cover between the lower area of the heat exchanger and the inducer, (combustion fan). Then you are refering to the "collector box".

As mentioned above, rust is a natural occurance for cast iron that is not a problem. If your issue with it is appearance then you could try a product/chemical called "ospho". I have used it many times in the past with great results. Brush or spray it on, (windex type spray bottle will do)...

I know that zip screwing it in will work fine, but if clips are what you want you may find the correct interchangable ones at this, or another such link: http://www.mobilehomerepair.com/ColemanFilters.php Good Luck

I think in time all those plastic door clips become brittle and easily break. Occasionally you luck out and the door has four clips and only the top two are used/needed as the bottom is held in place by a channel. If so just swap top to bottom. If not I have quickly solved the problem, with...

I must admit having only experience in the installation of split, mini-split, and the normally placed window AC system. With that in mind I can't speak with familiarity to all the issues that a project such as your's might present. The fact that there is to be a 3 1/2 foot sleeve would make me...

You state the majority of the home is serviced by a hot water system. By chance do you have a secondary forced-air system with a humidifier? If so they are usually plumbed to the hot water supply side.

6% is the same as .06, so 7.5 X .06 = .45. Your -/+ tolerance would be 7.05 to 7.95. If you carry a cell phone you can use the "Tip Calculator" tool. $7.50 meal, 6% tip = $.45.

You have established that high and low voltage are present at the outside unit, good start. I have addressed and corrected the same problem a few times in the last month. Contactor -you replaced-. Tripped pressure switch will break low voltage -locate within cabinet and see if there is a...
