Ideal Jacket Assembly 6 Section 174702

The Ideal jacket assembly is the insulated outer casing that fits over the boiler's heat exchanger sections. This is the complete six-section version, supplied as a single assembly rather than as individual panels. It is an Ideal-manufactured component for the Ideal Commercial range, where the jacket retains heat around the cast sections and shields the surrounding casing from direct contact with hot surfaces.

• The jacket panels are torn, split or missing, leaving the heat exchanger sections exposed
• Insulation has crumbled, hardened or detached from the backing
• Visible heat staining, scorching or discolouration on the jacket surface
• The casing no longer sits square or clips together properly after service work
• Sections run hotter than expected because the surrounding insulation is no longer doing its job

• Confirm your appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering
• Check the number on the existing jacket or the appliance data plate matches 174702 or 200010342
• Inspect the retaining clips, screws and any seals around the jacket while the casing is off, as these are often disturbed during removal
