ECM Technology Benefits
ECM blower motors use a brushless DC design controlled by an integrated microprocessor, allowing the motor to ramp speed up or down in response to system demand. This results in lower electricity consumption, quieter operation, improved humidity control, and more consistent temperature distribution throughout the conditioned space.
