What it is
The Ideal 173554 is a heat engine kit, supplied as a heat exchanger assembly for Ideal domestic gas boilers. It is used across the Isar HE, Icos System HE and Esprit 2 appliance families, where the primary heat exchanger transfers heat from the burner to the water in the system. The kit is intended for replacement of the original exchanger when it can no longer do its job.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Heating or hot water output drops away, or the boiler struggles to reach temperature
- Kettling, banging or gurgling noises coming from the heat exchanger
- The appliance overheats and locks out repeatedly
- Water weeping from the exchanger body or its joints
- Scale, sludge or discolouration visible on the exchanger surface
