OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor P291-2503 for Model PH1REA060000AAWA

This OEM single run capacitor (part number P291-2503) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PH1REA060000AAWA packaged heat pump unit. A run capacitor provides the continuous phase-shifted current needed to keep a single motor — typically the condenser fan or blower motor — spinning efficiently under load. When this capacitor degrades or fails, you'll notice symptoms such as a loud humming noise with no motor movement, the motor struggling to start, the system tripping on thermal overload, or the unit short-cycling due to overheating caused by a sluggish motor.

  • Specs: Single run capacitor | Factory-matched MFD rating and voltage | Cylindrical/oval case per OEM spec | Meets original ±5% tolerance for reliable motor performance
  • OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine OEM Carrier part — engineered to exact factory tolerances. Aftermarket capacitors frequently deviate ±10–15% in microfarad rating, placing added thermal stress on motor windings and dramatically shortening equipment life.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and discharge the capacitor fully before touching any terminals (use an insulated resistor or discharge tool). Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter to confirm discharge. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
  • Warranty & Shipping: Backed by a 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In stock and ships same business day when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Designed and tested for the Carrier PH1REA060000AAWA 5-ton packaged heat pump. Always cross-reference the MFD rating and voltage stamped on your original capacitor's label with the data plate on your unit before completing your order. Not sure it fits? Our HVAC parts specialists verify fitment before you buy — contact us before placing your order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PH1REA060000AAWA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PH1REA060000AAWA. 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 PH1REA060000AAWA?
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.
