Worked and arrived quickly, can't beat that!
Says Rheem brand, but came in a protech box. I looked it up and apparently Protech is the offical maker/distributer of Rheem genuine parts. Screw holes matched up perfectly, part installed easily. I bought and switched out the pressure switch to my unit as well, just as precaution and everything is working great. Support at Supplyhouse incredibly helpful during this process.

Runs noisy
Item runs louder then original motor. It's doing its job but would have liked it to be quieter like the original. Thought about returning it and trying a different one.

Shipped quickly and fit perfectly
Induction fan went up in our furnace causing burning smell throughout the house. Found a match on line at SupplyHouse.com and ordered. It arrived quickly and was a perfect match. Installed in 15 minutes and solved the problem.

EASY FIX
The fan was a perfect fix and took about 5 minutes to change. My original IDB was making a whining sound. The new one is silent as it should be.
