Heil Quaker ICP 1176968 Housing
The Heil Quaker ICP 1176968 Housing is a critical OEM replacement kit inducer housing designed for high-efficiency gas furnaces. As a veteran technician knows, maintaining the integrity of the combustion assembly is non-negotiable for system safety and performance. This housing serves as the primary enclosure for the furnace draft inducer motor, ensuring that combustion gases are precisely channeled from the heat exchanger to the exhaust flue. Engineered to meet strict ICP furnace parts specifications, the 1176968 replaces several legacy components, including the 1183436, providing a perfected fit that prevents air leaks and pressure switch trip-outs. When you are performing a furnace inducer assembly repair, using this genuine Heil Quaker replacement part ensures the static pressure remains within design parameters, allowing the pressure switch to close reliably and the ignition sequence to complete without interruption. This heavy-duty housing is built to withstand internal condensation and high-thermal cycles common in modern HVAC inducer kit applications across Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker platforms.
Key Benefits:
- Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered specifically for ICP-manufactured units, ensuring a seamless fit without the need for field modifications.
- Enhanced Static Pressure Control: Maintains the exact tolerances required to keep the pressure switch engaged during the entire heating cycle.
- Superior Thermal Resistance: Constructed from high-grade materials to prevent warping or cracking under extreme furnace plenum temperatures.
- Leak-Proof Seal: Precision-molded edges provide an airtight connection to the heat exchanger, preventing dangerous flue gas recirculation.
Common Questions:
- How do I know if the housing itself needs replacement versus just the motor? Inspect the interior of the housing for significant scale buildup, cracks, or "scouring" marks where a failed inducer wheel may have compromised the plastic wall. If the housing is cracked, the vacuum will drop, and the furnace will not fire.
- Is this kit compatible with older Heil Quaker models? Yes, the 1176968 is the official replacement for several older part numbers. It is widely used in Heil, Tempstar, Arcoaire, and KeepRite furnaces.
- Does this include the blower wheel or just the housing? This is a kit inducer housing; typically, it includes the main volute/housing assembly. Always verify if your specific motor and wheel are seated correctly within the new assembly to ensure proper Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) output.
