Robert H Rockwood , TN August 25, 2021 Operator malfunction The unit was slinging water everywhere, so I decided to drill a hole in the bottom for the water to drip out. The drill went too far and hit the fan breaking off the fan blades. Got a new one from appliancepartspros.com, tried to replace it by slipping it in, but it broke. So ordered another one and this time removed the evaporator to gain enough clearance, and boom, works great. True story. :) 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes
