Heil Quaker ICP 1014425 Gasket

For field technicians and mechanical contractors, the ICP 1014425 Exhaust Blower Gasket is a critical OEM replacement part designed to maintain the integrity of high-efficiency gas furnaces. This furnace draft inducer gasket provides an airtight seal between the blower housing and the exhaust vent connector, preventing the escape of toxic combustion gases into the living space. Engineering standards for the International Comfort Products 1014425 ensure it meets the thermal resistance requirements of 90%+ AFUE furnaces. As the direct replacement for part 1012588, this component is essential for resolving pressure switch faults and "no heat" calls caused by vacuum leaks at the combustion blower motor interface. This Heil Quaker replacement gasket is precision-cut from high-grade foam material to match the exact physical dimensions (approximately 4.3 inches outer diameter) of the original factory seal, ensuring HVAC system efficiency and reliable exhaust blower sealing across brands like Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire.

• Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered as a drop-in replacement for 1012588, ensuring a precise fit without field modifications.
• Combustion Safety: Creates a high-integrity seal to prevent exhaust leaks and ensure proper drafting of combustion byproducts.
• System Calibration: Restores the necessary static pressure for furnace pressure switches to close reliably, preventing system lockouts.
• Broad Application: Verified for use in C9MPD, C9MPT, and H9MPD furnace series and other ICP-family equipment.
• Thermal Durability: Constructed from high-temperature foam to withstand the cycling heat of the inducer assembly.

What furnace models are compatible with the ICP 1014425?
This gasket is widely utilized in Heil Quaker and International Comfort Products natural gas furnaces, specifically the 9MPT and 9MPD high-efficiency series including 9MPT050, 9MPT075, and 9MPT100 models.

Is the 1014425 the correct replacement for the 1012588?
Yes, the 1014425 is the direct replacement for 1012588. Manufacturers have transitioned to this current part number for all official service and repair applications involving these exhaust systems.

Why is replacing the draft inducer gasket necessary during a motor swap?
A compromised or compressed gasket can lead to air bypass, which drops the vacuum pressure required to trigger the pressure switch. Replacing the seal ensures the inducer blower operates at peak performance and maintains safety standards.
