What it is
The Ideal 180778 is the control box front casing assembly used on the Ideal Classic 2 range of boilers. It forms the front face of the control box, enclosing and protecting the control components behind it while presenting the fascia the user sees. It is a casing component rather than a gas-carrying part, so it is replaced as a straightforward mechanical item.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Visible cracks, splits or holes in the front casing
- Broken or snapped mounting lugs where the casing fixes to the control box
- Impact damage to the fascia or the area around the controls
- Discolouration or heat marking on the front face
- The casing no longer sitting flush or secure against the control box
