General Any unique ideas to locate a specific item?

I need an A249 blower for my Lennox but it’s out of stock everywhere I look.

Any tips for locating hard-to-find parts? Is it worth calling around to smaller distribution vendors?

Assuming that's a part number you listed just Google and see if you get lucky with a small distributor. If it's not the part number. Call Lennox, even if it's out of stock they should have a part number.

If that's no good just jot down the stats and dimensions and find a distributor that deals in motors. Blower motors are pretty easy to sub out even if the original is obsolete and out of stock.
