Is $2,000 to replace the condenser fan motor a fair price?
Project Details
We have a Rheem central AC unit that is on the fritz. The existing motor appears to have been replaced only 2-3 years ago by the prior owner and is dead already. I am considering a DIY replacement because the part is approximately $400.
