High-Efficiency Pleated Air Filter
A heavily restricted filter reduces mass airflow across the evaporator coil, causing the refrigerant temperature to drop below the dew point and eventually the freezing point. This results in the accumulation of solid ice on the coil fins, which physically occludes the air passages and prevents any air from reaching the supply vents.

Blower Motor Run Capacitor
In systems utilizing PSC blower motors, the run capacitor provides the necessary phase-shifted current to create a rotating magnetic field in the motor windings. If the capacitor's capacitance drops below its rated microfarad range, the motor will fail to generate sufficient starting torque to overcome inertia, resulting in a stalled rotor and no airflow.

Indoor Blower Motor
The blower motor is the electromechanical driver of the squirrel-cage fan; failure occurs due to winding insulation breakdown or bearing seizure. In ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) versions common in high-SEER Rheem units, the control module's power transistors often fail due to thermal stress, resulting in a total loss of motor rotation.
