What it is
The Ideal HE24 plate heat exchanger kit is a secondary heat exchanger assembly supplied by Ideal for use in its domestic boiler range. In a combi boiler the secondary heat exchanger transfers heat from the primary circuit to the domestic hot water, so the plate pack sits on the DHW side of the appliance and is exposed to mains water quality and scale. This kit is listed under Ideal part number 173544 and is also referenced by the alternative numbers 1179530 and N8097.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Domestic hot water runs hot then cold, or the temperature swings as the tap is used
- Reduced hot water flow rate at the outlet compared with the cold supply
- Scale or debris blocking the plate passages, often after work on the mains supply
- Water weeping from the plate pack or from the seals where the exchanger joins the pipework
- Boiler locking out or reporting a fault during a hot water draw-off
Before you order
- Check the GC number and appliance serial plate against the compatibility list before ordering, as the same boiler family can use more than one exchanger variant.
- Confirm the alternative numbers 1179530 and N8097 against the part you are removing.
- Check whether new seals or gaskets are needed for the connections being disturbed.
- This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
