What it is
The Ideal 178059 is a front section for the heat exchanger assembly fitted to Ideal Commercial Evojet appliances. It forms one part of the heat exchanger body, the component that transfers heat from the combustion gases into the system water. Replacing a single section allows the exchanger to be rebuilt rather than renewed as a complete assembly.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Water weeping, staining or crusting around the heat exchanger section joints
- Kettling, rumbling or banging noises as the appliance heats up
- Localised corrosion, pitting or heavy scale on the section face
- Reduced heat output or a poor temperature rise across the appliance
- Repeated overheating lockouts traced back to the heat exchanger
Before you order
- Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering.
- Inspect the section faces and any gaskets or seals between sections, as these are normally renewed when a section is replaced.
- This item is listed as a non-gas part.
- This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
