I need to replace a bad condenser motor. The original motor was 1/6 HP with 1125 RPM. Can a 1/4 HP with 1075 RPM be used without effecting the system's ability to cool properly?

Would a 1/3 HP at 1075 RPM be stretching it???

That should work fine, provided it fits and the rotation is correct.

It's only a shock if your not expecting it!
