Heil Quaker ICP 1193959 Reversing Valve
The Heil Quaker ICP 1193959 Reversing Valve is a critical OEM 4-way refrigerant control component engineered for high-efficiency International Comfort Products (ICP) heat pump systems. As the direct replacement for part 1173708, this pilot-operated valve is designed to withstand the high-pressure demands of modern refrigerants while ensuring seamless switching between heating and cooling cycles. Field technicians rely on this reversing valve for its robust slide mechanism, which prevents internal bypass leaks and maintains system capacity during extreme ambient temperatures. Whether you are servicing a dual-fuel setup or a standard residential heat pump, using this genuine ICP part ensures the unit meets original manufacturer specs for pressure drop and flow rate, preventing compressor stress and protecting the system?s SEER rating. Precision-machined HVAC replacement parts like the 1193959 are essential for maintaining the operational integrity and seasonal performance of Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker equipment.
Key Benefits for Technicians:
- Direct OEM Cross-Reference: Exact functional replacement for legacy ICP 1173708, ensuring port alignment and tubing compatibility during torch work.
- Optimal Refrigerant Flow: Engineered to minimize pressure drop across the heat pump reversing valve, maximizing BTU output in both modes.
- Durable Solenoid Interaction: Built to precise tolerances to ensure the reversing valve slide shifts reliably even after thousands of cycles.
- High-Grade Construction: Manufactured with materials resistant to copper-to-brass brazing stress and internal mechanical wear.
Common Questions & Technical Support:
Is the solenoid coil included with this valve?
Typically, the ICP 1193959 is the valve body alone; unless specified, the solenoid coil is a separate component. Verify the voltage (24V or 120V) of the existing coil before installation.
What are the symptoms of a failing reversing valve?
Common indicators include "stuck in one mode," refrigerant migrating across the slide (identified via temperature differential testing on the suction lines), or an audible "whooshing" sound indicating an internal leak.
Does this valve require specific brazing precautions?
Yes, always wrap the valve body in a wet rag or use Heat Shield gel during brazing to prevent internal seal damage. Ensure the reversing valve is positioned correctly relative to the compressor?s discharge line.
