Replacement heat pump fan

Hi, are we able to buy the fan units and install them ourselves? Where would you buy them from?

Are you talking about the indoor unit or just the fan motor?

The fan motor for the indoor unit.

How do you know it needs replacing?
It is very uncommon for the motor to fail and need replacing.

What make and model? With the mucking around and the painful ways things are made these days may be easier to get the service agent. Or try a refrigeration guy. He may have a better idea of best places for parts.
But as above. What makes you think its the motor? I've had relays fail for fans which have been a pain to replace but never a motor.

We have had a service person tell us it needs replacing. They quoted $400 - $500. It is very noisy. The service manual looks like it is very straightforward to replace it.

Is it making kind of a rattling/vibrating noise? Sort of drumming sound?

It's just a really loud fan sound, like a worn bearing.

wouldn't pay for that diagnosis.

mine had a thermistor replacement under warranty, everything seems to just clip out with little effort. give it a go if you can find someone who will sell you the part.
