Ideal Combination Inlet Group 176750

The Ideal 176750 Combination Inlet Group is a hydraulic assembly fitted to Ideal Thermstore unvented hot water cylinders. It sits on the cold water inlet side of the cylinder and brings the inlet control functions together in a single unit, regulating the incoming mains supply as it enters the vessel. As a hydraulic component it is separate from the gas side of the appliance and is replaced as a complete assembly.

• Water weeping or dripping from the body of the inlet group or from its connections to the cylinder
• Reduced or unstable hot water flow at the taps when other outlets are used
• Water passing from the expansion relief outlet or discharging continuously at the tundish
• Inlet pressure drifting above or below the expected setting, or the unit failing to hold pressure
• Scale, debris or a blocked strainer restricting the incoming mains supply

• Confirm the exact Thermstore model and serial number on the cylinder data plate before ordering
• Compare the part number on the existing inlet group with 176750 to be sure of the match
• Cross-reference the alternative number 1783127 if the number on the old component differs
