Title: clare furnace draft inducer needs repair or replacement
Post by: celica on November 20, 2025, 06:42:45 PM
I have a clare furnace. The draft inducer is a Emerson model k33hxcfe-964. It is on it's last legs and i have been looking for a replacement. Has anyone been able to find a replacement for this inducer. I have looked for one on the internet, but don't see much available.  Has anyone been down this road? Can you get a replacement Emerson motor and change it and reuse the assembly. Any other options? Thanks.

Fasco A136 Draft Inducer Motor should work.

I looked at the fasco a136. The Emerson k33hxcfe-194 has 3 inch inlet and outlet ports while the fasco has 2/1.8 inch ports, so adaptors would need to be used, which is no big deal. There is no drain port on the fasco, so a drain would need to be installed in the line. The spec's are the same, so if you were really determined the fasco could be used.
