Replacement blower motor?

[Grant Gunderson]

I need to replace the blower on my carrier furnace. It had a

GE 5KCP39GGV567DS Blower motor. I thought I had found a genuine OEM replacement on Amazon, but what I received was some sketchy no-name Chinese knock off.​

So question is, would one of these be a better option?
Centry motor or Dayton

Or is there something better out there that I am unaware of?

I know they're not directly related, but if its the same Dayton company that makes speakers/amplifiers, I've heard very good things about their quality in audio equipment. I've never heard of Centry motor but maybe others have.

Fasco was a good US made company for these types of motors. They were bought out some years back and I think production moved overseas so I'm not sure how the quality has held up.

Dayton is Grainger's private label brand. They are generally fine, usually a well know manufacturer, just relabeled.

Take your pick, https://www.supplyhouse.com/sh/control/search/~SEARCH_STRING=blower motor 1/3

Keep in mind you can buy a standard 1/3 HP, 1075 RPM, 115 volt motor and buy a mount.

supply house is sketchy. They fulfilled my Amazon order for what was supposed to be an actual GE motor with some no name Chinese ****. They do it with all of the motors they list.
