OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor P291-8074R for Model CH13NA06100GBAAA

This is the factory-specified OEM dual run capacitor for the Carrier CH13NA06100GBAAA split-system condenser. The dual run capacitor serves two critical roles simultaneously — it provides the starting torque and sustained run voltage for both the compressor and the condenser fan motor. When this component degrades or fails, you'll notice symptoms such as a loud humming with no motor movement, the compressor attempting to start and tripping off, the condenser fan spinning slowly or not at all, or the entire outdoor unit failing to energize. Replacing it promptly prevents costly compressor damage from repeated hard-start attempts.

  • Specs: OEM Part Number P291-8074R | Dual run configuration (compressor + fan) | 440V rated | Round capacitor case | Factory-matched tolerance for reliable, long-term operation
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM unit is manufactured to Carrier's exact MFD tolerance (±5% or tighter), ensuring proper motor starting and run performance. Aftermarket capacitors often carry a ±10% tolerance, which can accelerate compressor wear, shorten motor life, and void equipment warranties.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — A capacitor swap is one of the most common DIY HVAC repairs. Always shut off power at the disconnect and discharge the capacitor terminals before handling. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, insulated needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter for verification. Photograph all wiring connections before removing the old unit.
  • Warranty: Backed by a 1-year OEM factory warranty. Orders placed before our same-day shipping cutoff ship directly from our stocked warehouse — no waiting on backorders.

Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Carrier CH13NA06100GBAAA condenser unit. Always confirm the MFD ratings and voltage on your unit's data plate match before installing. Not sure if this is the right part? Our HVAC parts specialists verify fitment before you order — contact us and we'll confirm compatibility for your exact unit configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier CH13NA06100GBAAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier CH13NA06100GBAAA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the capacitor on my Carrier CH13NA06100GBAAA?
Difficulty: Easy (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power at breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph the old capacitor wiring (Common/Herm/Fan). Step 4: Discharge old capacitor with insulated screwdriver. Step 5: Disconnect and remove old capacitor. Step 6: Mount new capacitor, reconnect wires to matching terminals. Step 7: Close panel, restore power, test. Tools: screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
My AC hums but won’t start. What part do I need?
An AC that hums but won’t start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost to start the compressor. When it fails, you hear humming but the motor can’t overcome inertia. Other symptoms: fan spinning slowly, AC cycling on/off rapidly, or a visibly swollen capacitor. Fix: replace capacitor ($15–$80 DIY, 30 min).
Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier capacitor?
OEM strongly recommended. OEM capacitors have ±6% MFD tolerance vs aftermarket ±10%. The looser tolerance causes motor winding stress, higher temps, and shorter compressor life. Price difference is only $10–$20 — OEM is the clear value choice.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
Orders placed before 3:00 PM CST ship the same business day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days anywhere in the continental United States. Express shipping available at checkout. We ship from Houston, TX to all 50 states. 30-day return policy on all parts.
