What it is
The Ideal 179129 is a flow regulator supplied for Ideal's Vogue range of condensing boilers and commercial appliances. It governs the rate at which water moves through the circuit it serves, holding the flow steady as demand and system pressure change. Ideal lists it as the replacement component for the original fitment in these appliances.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Hot water flow rate falls noticeably below the rate the appliance is set to deliver
- Flow rate pulses or fluctuates during draw-off instead of holding steady
- Scale or debris restricting the regulator and reducing flow through the circuit
- Outlet temperature becomes difficult to hold as flow varies
- Visible wear or damage at the regulator body or its connections
Before you order
- Match the GC number on the appliance data badge against the numbers listed above
- Check the part number currently fitted and cross-check it against 1783061
- Inspect the seals and connections in the same circuit while access is available
- This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
