Question:

I recently had my central ac blower motor and squirrel cage replaced by a professional?

It has been working fine for about a month, a couple of days ago my old Mercury thermostat broke and I replaced it with a cheap modern Honeywell thermostat. Now my blower motor will only run about 3 hours gradually slowing to a stop. I turn it off for a few hours and it is good for a few more hours, could it be the thermostat? There were NO problems before the thermostat change and I returned the 1st one for and identical 2nd thermostat and the same thing happened.

Answer:

If your old one had mercury switch you need to replace with same type. If new one is digital wont work properly.
