The genuine OEM Lennox 10M78 draft inducer blower motor drives the inducer assembly that pulls combustion gases through the heat exchanger and pushes them safely out the flue. Proper inducer airflow is essential for clean, efficient combustion and for satisfying the pressure switch that allows your Lennox furnace to fire. This factory-matched motor is engineered to the exact speed, torque, and mounting specifications your Lennox system was designed around.

Common failure symptoms: A failing 10M78 often shows up as a furnace that won't ignite, a loud humming or grinding at startup, intermittent lockouts triggered by the pressure switch, or a unit that runs the inducer but never lights the burners. Worn bearings, seized shafts, and open windings are all typical end-of-life indicators.

Why OEM matters: Lennox furnaces rely on precise inducer draft to keep the pressure switch and safety controls happy. A generic or mismatched motor can under- or over-draft the system, causing nuisance lockouts, poor efficiency, or unsafe operation. Installing the OEM 10M78 guarantees correct airflow, proper fit, and full compatibility with your Lennox equipment for dependable heating season after season.
