What HP motor do I need for my Tempstar unit?

The correct replacement for Tempstar model TVH837GKA101 — 1/4 HP OEM Kit | Ships Today is this exact part. It is the factory-specified replacement with exact OEM specifications. Using a part with different specifications can cause equipment damage or void your warranty. You can verify this by checking the data plate on your Tempstar equipment which lists the model number TVH837GKA101 — 1/4 HP OEM Kit | Ships Today.

My AC fan is not spinning. What part do I need?

A fan that does not spin, spins slowly, or makes grinding or squealing noises needs a new motor. Grinding means the bearings have failed. Squealing means the bearings are dry. No spin with a humming sound means the capacitor may be the issue. Check the motor capacitor before replacing the entire motor.

Is this fan motor compatible with Bryant or Payne systems too?

Many Tempstar parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne systems since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across multiple brand labels with different model numbers. To verify cross-compatibility, check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or contact info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number for confirmation.

Overview

This is the OEM 1/4 HP condenser fan motor assembly for the Tempstar TVH837GKA101 packaged unit. The condenser fan motor turns the outdoor fan blade that pulls air across the condenser coil to reject system heat. When it fails, the unit can no longer shed heat, leading to high head pressure, compressor overheating, high-pressure lockouts, and lost cooling. This kit combines the OEM motor (part 1187928, MTR FAN 1/4 HP) with the correct mounting adapter (1188001) and the factory wiring harness assembly (1188022) for an exact, drop-in replacement.

My AC fan isn’t spinning. What part do I need?

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Tempstar fan motor?
