What it is

The Ideal 176725 is a thermometer connector piece, classified by the manufacturer as an adaptor and connector. It provides the threaded interface that holds the thermometer sensor in position on the appliance, keeping the sensing bulb seated in contact with the pipework or pocket it monitors. It is supplied as a spare for Ideal Commercial and Ideal Solar Thermal appliances.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Temperature readings that are erratic, slow to respond or stuck at a fixed value
  • Visible corrosion, cracking or damaged threads on the connector body
  • Weeping or dripping at the joint where the thermometer enters the appliance
  • The sensor bulb sitting loose or failing to seat correctly in its pocket
  • Scale or debris build-up around the connector restricting the sensor

Before you order

  • Confirm your appliance model against the compatibility list before ordering.
  • Compare the connector already fitted with part number 176725 and alternative number 1783117.
  • Inspect the sealing washer or O-ring at the pocket and renew it if it is perished or hardened.
  • Work on sealed system components should be carried out by a competent engineer.
