PROTECH™ 70-24157-03 Genuine OEM Induced Draft Blower with Gasket 120V 1-Stage

The PROTECH™ 70-24157-03 is a high-performance Genuine OEM Induced Draft Blower Assembly specifically designed for Rheem, Ruud, and WeatherKing 80% AFUE gas furnaces. This critical combustion component, also known as a venter motor, draws air into the burner assembly and exhausts flue gases out of the heat exchanger and through the vent pipe, ensuring the safe and efficient removal of carbon monoxide from the system. 

Technical Performance:

Operating at 120V, this single-stage assembly is engineered for Right-Side Discharge configurations. Choosing a Genuine OEM assembly ensures the motor is precision-balanced to prevent the excessive vibration and harmonic noise often found in generic replacements. The assembly includes a factory-installed cooling fan to protect the motor windings from high heat and a heavy-duty housing that maintains the specific static pressure required to trip the furnace's safety pressure switch reliably. 

Key Features and Function:

  • Precision Combustion Control: Maintains the exact vacuum pressure needed to safely pull flue gases through the heat exchanger and out the vent.
  • Genuine OEM Reliability & Fitment: Pre-aligned mounting holes and factory-matched electrical connectors ensure a "plug-and-play" installation with no modifications.
  • Right-Side Discharge Design: Specifically oriented for side-vented furnace configurations to ensure proper flue alignment.
  • Safety Gasket Included: Comes with a high-temperature mounting gasket to prevent toxic flue gas leaks at the heat exchanger interface. 

Product Details and Key Specifications:

  • Part Number: 70-24157-03 (Replaces 70-24157-01, 70-24157-02)
  • Manufacturer: Rheem / Ruud (PROTECH™ Genuine OEM)
  • Part Type: Induced Draft Blower / Venter Assembly

🛠️ HVAC Depot Pro Tip: The Pressure Port Check

When replacing the 70-24157-03, always inspect the small plastic pressure switch port on the blower housing for debris or carbon buildup. Even a tiny obstruction in this port can prevent your furnace from sensing airflow, leading to a "Pressure Switch Open" error code. Also, ensure the old gasket material is completely scraped off the heat exchanger surface before installing the new assembly to guarantee a gas-tight seal.
