Ideal Burner Fixing Plate 178094

The Ideal 178094 is a burner fixing plate used in Ideal commercial boiler assemblies. It mounts the burner securely and holds it in the correct position relative to the combustion chamber, so the gas and air path stays aligned and combustion remains stable. The plate is produced by Ideal as a replacement component for the original fitment, and is listed under the Ideal Domestic Boiler Spares brand range.

Because the burner is a load-bearing part of the combustion assembly, the fixing plate needs to sit flat and hold its shape. A distorted or corroded plate allows the burner to shift, which affects flame pattern and can lead to repeated lockouts or rough running.

• The burner will not sit squarely or hold its position when refitted
• Visible distortion, cracking or heavy corrosion across the plate
• Soot deposits or scorching around the burner mounting area
• Elongated fixing holes or damaged threads that prevent a tight fit
• Unstable flame, rough running or repeated lockouts following burner work

• Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list
• Check the number on the existing plate matches 178094 before ordering
• Note that 1180777 may appear on older documentation for the same item
• This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
