can the replacement motor be installed from the roof ?

Yes, old motor pulled out with brackets and replacement motor slid back in with bracket and attached to fan housing. All this done on the roof.

Yes, I believe it can. When the unit was installed, it was done so in two sections. The lower half which was the flashing and nailed to the roof was placed first after cutting the hole. The motor and housing are in the top half of unit which attaches to the lower half by sheet metal screws. You should be able toaccess the motor if you separate the top and bottom sections exposing the motor and fan blade. Be sure to turn off the electric to the device first.

I have done a couple of replacements from the roof. It is kind of tricky because there is not much room for your hands and tools. Be sure the power is off because the heat in the attic could cause the wires to become energized.

Probably not. It is not a sealed unit and water could easily seep in and ruin the motor.

Mine came with the motor,and I had to install it ,but that was not too difficult

No, the top and ceiling interface is flat and metal which encases a much smaller than overall diameter motor. The motor is a sealed metal disc (visually equivalent to a round enclosure tape measure.) I used 1 inch drywall screws and the assemvly mounted perfectly. My reason for disassembling is due to a noisy motor. I sprayed lubricant hut only helped temporarily. I am looking to replace for the third time because of noisy motors. I will try to find a more expensive one having different motor design.

yes, make sure you vent from side and back. It is important so the motor does not burn out.

You probably could, but you may not want to. I have mounted units on the roof before and found them to be a lot harder to maintain ( because I had to climb onto the roof whenever they needed maintenance ) and because it will put a lot more head pressure on the pump to push the weater up to the roof.

Yes, on the unit I worked on all that was needed was to remove one screw, unplug the motor and the mounting plate could then be lowered out of the unit . Once the mounting plate is out just remove two nuts securing the motor and wheel, replace with the new motor and wheel, position the mounting plate back into the unit and secure it in place with the one screw you took out previously and you're done. Very easy.

Not sure, sorry. It may be possible to exchange parts from your old motor to get the discharge where you need it.

I ended up replacing the whole assembly. It just wasn't cost effective to just replace the motor

Yes, there should be no water going to the plumbing for the motor when you replace it. I needed to use tools to help loosen the old and tighten the new motors. dm

I ordered this a while back and received only the motor which is all you typically need unless something is broke on your regulator for some reason. The motor is almost all that is broke if your window just stops working one day or if it gets really weak etc. I watched a bunch of "how to" videos on how to replace it on my wife's 02 yukon and found it to be a pretty easy process. I'd rate it a 2 outta 5 in difficulty, maybe easier. Hope this helps

Sorry Mike, but the unit has been installed for several years and I have no way to gather the information that you're asking for. However, I bought the unit as a replacement to another motor, per some spec recommendations. Even thought the motors were different,including the length of the shaft, the mount brackets allowed me to adjust the unit until it fit in the power vent. I took a gamble on this working and was pleasantly surprised that it did.

Yes... that motor is listed as a replacement for his Whirlpool dryer. The motor is an easy replacement with the exception of the blower fan. It wouldn't hurt to have the fan on hand in case his cracks removing it.

I'm not sure. I used the motor for a different purpose than to hang something. Sorry

I'm not sure if the red metal housing that the motor sits in will support welding or not. I mounted my hoist to rafters in my garage ceiling using pre-drilled holes in the red metal housing and running bolts through a double 2x4 that I strung between two rafters. I did have to take out the motor from the red metal housing first and then screw it all together at the same time. A bit extra work, but it works and is secure.

I'm not sure what your asking but what I have is that replacement kit with no motor however due to a tree I have the tail motor because it broke off. I hope this the correct answer. wade J.
