What it is

The Ideal 172167 is an FRT upper insulation panel, a shaped thermal barrier that sits over the upper section of the heat exchanger on Ideal Commercial Concord appliances. It reduces radiant and conductive heat loss from the hot upper casing area and protects surrounding components from prolonged heat exposure. The part is supplied by Ideal and carries the previous reference 8358-4017.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Insulation panel is brittle, crumbled or breaking away from its fixing points
  • Visible charring, discolouration or scorching on the panel surface
  • Heat damage or discolouration on nearby wiring, pipework or casing panels
  • Higher surface temperatures around the upper casing during operation
  • Panel has come loose, sagged or no longer sits flush against the heat exchanger

Before you order

  • Confirm your appliance model against the compatibility list, as Concord variants differ in casing and heat exchanger layout
  • Check the existing panel for the previous reference 8358-4017 or the alternative number 1178552 before ordering
  • Inspect the surrounding seals and fixings while the casing is open, as heat-degraded insulation often accompanies worn gaskets
