What it is
The Ideal modulating valve, part number 178081, is a replacement control valve for Ideal heat interface units and commercial appliances. It modulates flow through the unit so the outlet is held at the required condition rather than running fully open or fully closed. The valve is rated to a capability of 1.65 bar and is supplied as a spare component by Ideal.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Outlet temperature drifting away from the set point, or hot water running hot and cold
- The valve no longer modulates, so the unit sits at maximum or minimum output
- Unstable or fluctuating temperature at the heat interface unit
- Fault codes or lockout reported by the appliance controller
- Noise, vibration or sticking from the valve body during operation
Before you order
- Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering
- Compare the part number on the existing valve with 178081
- Cross-reference the alternative number 1782781 when checking older stock or documentation
- Inspect seals, washers and connections when the valve is removed and renew them if worn
