What it is

The Ideal 171440 is a pilot burner head supplied complete with an injector kit, intended for propane-fuelled appliances. The pilot burner provides the standing flame that ignites the main burner, so the injector and head must be matched to the gas type and the appliance's burner arrangement. This assembly is listed against the Ideal British/Scottish Gas RD1 range and a further spread of Ideal appliances.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The pilot flame fails to light or extinguishes shortly after ignition
  • A weak, yellow or lifting pilot flame instead of a steady blue flame
  • Sooting or discolouration around the pilot burner head or injector
  • Repeated lockouts or the appliance failing to establish a flame on start-up
  • Visible damage, corrosion or blockage at the injector or burner head

Before you order

  • Check the appliance GC number and model against the compatibility list, as this head is specified for propane appliances
  • Confirm the alternative number 1178192 and previous number 079625 against the part being removed
  • Inspect the injector and any pilot assembly seals during the repair and replace where worn
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
