Hello, Just found this thread, what a treasure. I have a pair of AirCo furnaces in my up/down duplex. The downflow furnace's blower motor bearings seized. The technician is having a hard time finding bearings and thinks it's hard to get it off the shaft, but, thinks it's doable. I've read these furnaces are very reliable and all can be fixed other than the heat exchanger, which is very unlikely to go. My questions are: 1) is it worth spending the money to conduct this repair and can I *reasonably* expect reliable operation afterwards? 2) are other parts reasonably available should their be another breakdown? I've attached photos for reference. Thanks!
