What it is
The Ideal 173207 is a filling loop assembly used on Ideal Istor HE appliances. It forms part of the filling device arrangement, allowing the system to be topped up and brought back to its working pressure. The part is listed under Ideal Spares and carries the alternative number 1179345.
Signs this part needs replacing
- System pressure will not hold and needs topping up repeatedly
- Water weeping or dripping from the filling loop body or its connections
- The valve will not shut off fully, so pressure keeps creeping up
- Visible corrosion, scale or a stiff, seized handle on the loop
- Pressure rises on the gauge when the heating is off and the loop is left connected
Before you order
- Confirm the GC number on the appliance data badge matches 41-394-13 or 41-394-14
- Check the model and serial plate against the compatibility list, as Istor HE260 and HE325 variants appear more than once
- Note the alternative number 1179345 when cross-referencing an older stock listing
- Inspect the sealing washers on the existing loop and replace them if they are compressed or perished
