Heil Quaker ICP 1186104 Gasket
The Heil Quaker ICP 1186104 Gasket is a critical OEM replacement part designed specifically for sealing the furnace collector box (also known as the recoup cover) in high-efficiency condensing gas furnaces. For technicians troubleshooting water leakage or pressure switch tripping, this 14 1/4" x 5 1/2" green gasket provides the necessary airtight and watertight seal between the collector box and the secondary heat exchanger. Maintaining a precise seal is essential for ensuring the induced draft motor pulls a consistent vacuum, preventing condensate from leaking into the furnace cabinet and damaging internal components like the control board or blower motor.
Engineering-grade material allows this collector box gasket to withstand the thermal cycling and constant moisture inherent in high-efficiency HVAC systems. This part is a direct replacement for ICP part number 1184334 and has been superseded by part 1193912. It is compatible with HVAC units from International Comfort Products, including Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire, and KeepRite. When replacing, ensure the secondary heat exchanger surface is completely free of old adhesive and debris to prevent premature seal failure.
Key Benefits
- Restores System Pressure: Seals the negative pressure side of the heat exchanger to ensure proper pressure switch closure and reliable ignition.
- Prevents Condensate Leaks: Stops acidic water from dripping onto the furnace floor or sensitive electrical components.
- OEM Fit and Finish: Pre-cut dimensions (14.25" x 5.5") match original equipment specifications for a drop-in installation.
- Broad Compatibility: Fits popular 90%+ AFUE furnace series, including F9MVE, G9MVE, N9MSE, and R9MSB models.
Common Questions
Why is my furnace leaking water from the collector box area?
A compromised collector box gasket is a frequent culprit. Over time, the gasket can degrade due to thermal expansion or the acidic nature of furnace condensate, leading to visible drips or internal corrosion.
Do I need to apply silicone with this gasket?
While many technicians apply a thin bead of high-temp RTV silicone for additional security, this OEM gasket is designed to provide an unbreachable seal on its own when the mating surfaces are properly cleaned.
Can a bad gasket cause a pressure switch error code?
Yes. If the GASKET COLLECTOR BOX is leaking, the inducer cannot maintain the specific vacuum required to keep the pressure switch closed, causing the system to lock out for safety.
