What it is

The Ideal 172885 is a five-section body insulation moulding supplied for Ideal Commercial Buccaneer appliances. It is fitted around the heat exchanger body, where it limits heat loss to the surrounding casing and keeps surface temperatures around the appliance under control. The insulation is supplied as a multi-section component so it can be seated around the body of the heat exchanger during service or rebuild work.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Insulation crumbling, flaking or breaking up when the casing is opened
  • Sections missing, detached or no longer seated around the heat exchanger body
  • Visible scorching, discolouration or heat damage to the insulation surface
  • Exposed heat exchanger body where insulation has been lost
  • Localised overheating of nearby components or casing panels

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering
  • Check the part number on the insulation being removed, as earlier builds may carry 85755511
  • Inspect any seals or gaskets disturbed during removal and replace them if they are damaged
