Ideal Smoke Chamber Door Gasket 178099

The Ideal 178099 is a smoke chamber door gasket manufactured by Ideal for use on Ideal Commercial appliances. It sits between the smoke chamber door and its seating face, forming a seal that keeps flue gases within the combustion path rather than allowing them to escape at the door joint. The gasket is a service item, so it is replaced when the door seal is disturbed or when the original has degraded.

• The gasket is cracked, hardened or flattened and no longer springs back when the door is opened
• Soot or dark staining is visible around the smoke chamber door joint
• A smell of flue gases or evidence of leakage is detected at the door
• Combustion readings drift or will not hold steady after servicing
• The door does not seat squarely or the seal is visibly compressed at one point

• Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering
• Inspect the door face, studs and fixings for damage while the old gasket is removed
