Ideal Venturi Kit Vogue S32 Gen2 176897

The Ideal 176897 is a venturi kit used on Ideal Vogue and Vogue Max System appliances. The venturi sits on the air pressure switch and fan assembly, where it regulates the flow of gas and air so the two are drawn through in the correct ratio for clean, stable combustion. Because it directly influences the mixture strength, a worn or contaminated venturi shows up as combustion faults rather than as an obvious mechanical failure.

• Combustion readings that drift outside the expected range and cannot be corrected by adjustment
• Sooting, a yellow or lazy flame, or a heat exchanger that discolours unusually quickly
• Repeated lockouts or flame-failure faults traced to the fan and air pressure switch circuit
• Debris, corrosion or distortion visible on the venturi body or its tappings
• Unstable burner performance after a fan or air pressure switch replacement

• Confirm the appliance model and GC number against the compatibility list, as several Vogue variants use different GC references
• Note the alternative part number 1782649 when cross-checking against older documentation
• Check whether any gasket or seal on the fan and air pressure switch assembly also needs renewing at the same time
