Brand new 15 ton Trane Voyager Heat Pump RTU.. 3 months after commission I was called out to a no heat.. comp tripping internal.. dug in and found both cond fan motors hard to ground (off same fuse block, thanks Trane) and seized solid. When I showed up to swap them out I cracked open the old motors to see what the damage was. Obviously Trane cheaped out on the motors. Probably a half cup of water in each motor. After I installed the new motors I used Refrigeration Technologies silicone grease to seal up any place water could accumulate around the motor except the drain hole on the bottom.
