What it is

The Ideal 171404 is a combustion chamber insulation kit manufactured by Ideal Heating for the Classic range of gas boilers. It sits within the burner section of the appliance, where the insulation shields the surrounding casing and components from the heat produced at the burner. The burner is the primary heating method on a combustible appliance: gas is delivered through the gas valve and ignited once it reaches the burner, and the insulation around that area manages the resulting temperatures.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Visible cracking, crumbling or flaking of the insulation material
  • Insulation panels that have become brittle or detached from their seating
  • Discolouration or scorching around the burner area
  • Debris from the insulation falling into the combustion chamber
  • Disturbed or damaged insulation found during a burner service or inspection

Before you order

  • Check the Gas Council number and model plate on the appliance to confirm the correct variant before ordering.
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
  • Confirm whether any gasket or seal is disturbed during removal, as these are often replaced at the same time.
  • Cross-check the alternative part number 1178160 against any documentation supplied with the boiler.
