This looks like the real one on Amazon.com
search for:
"Mobile Climate Control 15-1556 Blower Motor"
but it cost $189 +15 shipping.

CFM is only half of the spec you must consider.
The pressure drop must be included.
The configuration of the box and the restriction of the coil can accumulate
pressure drop high enough to where the flow will be less than half.

I did a google search and came up with an MCC document that listed it as 12
volt 3-speed blower then I found it on Amazon.com. There were CFM charts
with inches of water and current flow listed. I have looked but have not
found it again. The 13 and 3/4 inches seemed the same as well.

Spal is listed in mmH20 and cubic meters per hour. 10 mm = 1050 CMH @32.5
amps Translates to about 0.4 inch h20 and 618 CFM and the 32.5 stays the
same.
Seems they are using a lot of power to get moderate air flow at a high
price.

Karen,
That SPAL blower is rated at 667 CFM.
Let's roughly calculate the internal volume of a 26 foot GMC: 25 feet X 8 feet X 7 feet = 1400 cubic feet
Lets guesstimate that blower is 50% efficient due to pressure drop through the mod Tom created; 1400 cubic feet divided by 330 means
that blower could replace all the air in a GMC in 4.24 minutes.
Seems like overkill to me.
Unless my logic and calculations are incorrect, which is quite possible.

Rob M.

It looks like other brand blowers are easier to find.
Would this SPAL brand work? Or is it too many amps (not sure how to read their table):

I still think the 15-1556 is a good choice.

Rob,
Good consideration, about the space.
Shows how one can miss things to consider.

I did see some specs for the 15-1556 before I found it on Amazon. As I
recall it was 14 amps max and 800 CFM at 1 inch of water. I will see if I
can find the data again.

We were in a home improvement store a while back, and they had a floor
stand air mover that had no blades. Made no noise either. Don't know
exactly how it worked but seemed to move a whole bunch of air. Just an oval
shaped ring.

That would be awesome. FWIW, here's a really good page I found for the
SPAL blower models:
http://www.spalautomotive.com/eng/products/centrifugal_12D.aspx
We're trying to figure out what the oem blower runs in terms of amps. The
fusible link is 30 amps,
so has to run much less than that.
Also, what size is the oem blower wheel? I'm having trouble finding that
info.
I think a double blower would be more efficient, but not if its wheels are
too small.
Lots of trade offs here.
thanks,

To bad it does not list a 17-39-22
There are 3 blowers listing that I think could work

We need to determin feet per min. velocity through the Coil, as we know
anything over 500 ft/min face volocity can cause the condensate to blow
into the ducts and water droplets will be a problem. Having a 3-4 speed can
help avoid that to some degree.
If there is a way to find the data of our origional blower , it might guide
one to avoid problems.
We can take data off all the outlets and try to get approximate cfm it
produces at MAX.
Average Vel times the area of each and add them up. We have the
instruments, but now for me to do it.

Jim K and others,
Any idea the design capacity of the air conditioning system? Generally air conditions are designed to have 400 CFM through the evaporator per ton (12,000 Btu/Hr).
This could help to estimate an airflow value.
Also, not sure what the surface area of the evaporator coil is, but using the typical 500 FPM value for velocity and multiplying by surface area (square feet) will also give a ballpark value for required CFM.
Though, as has been stated previously, still need the pressure to select the proper sized blower to purchase.
