Heil Quaker ICP 1177279 Trap
The Heil Quaker ICP 1177279 Trap is a critical condensate management component engineered for high-efficiency condensing furnaces. Designed to facilitate the proper drainage of moisture from the collector box and venting system, this OEM replacement part ensures that your heating system maintains optimal pressure switch operation. In high-efficiency 90% AFUE+ units, failure to provide a clear path for discharge can lead to condensate backup, causing intermittent ignition failures or total system lockout. This furnace drain trap is constructed from durable, chemical-resistant materials to withstand the acidic nature of furnace effluent, providing a reliable seal against flue gas leakage into the living space.
When performing a condensate trap replacement, verify the integrity of the internal baffles and ensure the drain hose connections are secured with appropriate clamps. This ICP 1177279 assembly is compatible with various brands under the International Comfort Products umbrella, including Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Heil. Proper installation requires that the trap be water-primed during commissioning to prevent the escape of combustion byproducts through the drainage line. Use technical specifications provided by the manufacturer to confirm the correct slope and port orientation for your specific furnace model.
Key Benefits
- Prevents pressure switch lockout by ensuring efficient moisture evacuation from the furnace heat exchanger.
- Maintains a critical water seal to block combustion gases and carbon monoxide from entering the drainage system.
- Engineered for ICP HVAC equipment, guaranteeing precise fitment and port alignment for Heil Quaker units.
- Resistant to the corrosive effects of condensate liquid produced during the combustion process.
- Facilitates a high-volume drainage rate to prevent water accumulation in the inducer housing.
Common Questions
How do I know if my condensate trap is clogged?
Technicians typically look for water pooling in the inducer motor or the furnace tripping on a "pressure switch open" fault code. Visual inspection of the 1177279 Trap often reveals sediment or sludge buildup that restricts flow.
Does this trap require priming before the furnace starts?
Yes, it is standard practice for HVAC contractors to fill the condensate trap with water before initial startup. This creates the necessary air seal to prevent exhaust gases from being pulled or pushed into the drain line.
Can I use a universal trap instead of the ICP 1177279?
While universal kits exist, using the OEM 1177279 ensures that the mounting points and internal flow characteristics match the combustion blower requirements, reducing the risk of improper pressure readings.
Item is Non Cancelable / Non Returnable
