What it is

The Ideal 177479 is a fan gasket used on Ideal Commercial gas boilers. It sits between the fan assembly and its mounting face, forming a compression seal that keeps the air intake and flue gas paths contained at that joint. The gasket is a service item: heat, vibration and flue gas condensate gradually harden and flatten the material, so it is replaced whenever the fan is removed or refitted.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Visible cracking, flattening or perishing of the gasket material when the fan is removed
  • Soot staining or dark tracking around the fan mounting face
  • Combustion readings that drift or fail to settle after servicing
  • Whistling or a change in fan note caused by leakage at the joint
  • Repeated lockouts or flame supervision faults following fan work

Before you order

  • Confirm the boiler model and GC number against the compatibility list, as the same part number covers several Evomax and Instinct Heat variants
  • Check the existing gasket against the alternative number 1782759 if the appliance has been serviced previously
  • Replace the gasket whenever the fan is disturbed, as a compressed gasket will not reseal reliably
