What it is

The Ideal 170915 is a vent/orifice plate kit supplied for Ideal domestic gas boilers. It forms part of the burner assembly, sitting in the combustion air and gas path to set the correct mixture reaching the burner head. The plate and its venting arrangement govern how air is drawn and metered around the burner, so the appliance burns cleanly and at the output it was designed for.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Sooting or blackening around the burner head or heat exchanger
  • Unstable flame, flame lift or a visibly yellow, lazy flame at the burner
  • Repeated ignition lockouts or rough, noisy light-up
  • Combustion readings outside the manufacturer's stated CO/CO2 range
  • Physical damage, distortion or corrosion of the plate or its venting

Before you order

  • Check the GC number on the appliance data badge against the compatibility list before ordering, as the same part number can be listed against several model variants.
  • Confirm the alternative number 1177945 if you are matching against an older parts listing.
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
