What it is
The Ideal 172857 is a complete five-section base and casing assembly for Ideal Commercial Buccaneer GTE appliances. It forms the lower structure of the unit, supporting the heat exchanger sections and carrying the outer casing panels that enclose the appliance. Supplied as a full assembly rather than individual panels, it is the direct replacement for the base fitted to GTE and GTE5 variants.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Corrosion, rust staining or metal loss across the base panels
- Cracking or distortion around the section mounting points
- Water tracking or pooling at the foot of the appliance
- Casing panels that no longer sit square, line up or seal against the base
- Impact or handling damage found during a service or strip-down
Before you order
- Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering
- Check the number stamped or labelled on the existing base, as earlier builds may carry 85758817
- Inspect the seals and gaskets at the base joint and renew them if they are perished or compressed
