What it is

The Ideal 171269 is a 600mm long rear side panel forming part of the casing assembly on Ideal Commercial appliances. It is the outer sheet-metal panel that closes off the rear side of the boiler shell, protecting the internal components and combustion area from dust, draughts and accidental contact. The panel is supplied as a single casing component and is identified under Ideal part number 171269, with 85558501 as an alternative number.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Visible corrosion, rust staining or blistering paint along the panel edges or fixing points
  • Dents, buckling or distortion that stops the panel sitting flush against the casing frame
  • Fixing screws no longer gripping because the mounting holes have rotted or elongated
  • Water tracking or staining on the panel face, indicating a leak behind the casing
  • Panel fouling adjacent casing sections, making the outer case difficult to refit correctly

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list, as casing panels differ between Viscount variants
  • Check the existing panel length measures 600mm before ordering, and cross-reference the old part number 85558501
  • Inspect the casing seals and fixings while the panel is off, and replace any that are perished or missing
