Heil Quaker ICP 1172824 Blower Assembly

The Heil Quaker ICP 1172824 Blower Assembly is a critical OEM replacement part designed for high-efficiency gas furnaces and HVAC systems. This induced draft blower assembly, also known as a draft inducer motor, is engineered to pull combustion gases through the heat exchanger and vent them safely through the flue. Built to meet exact factory specifications for ICP, Heil, and Tempstar equipment, the 1172824 ensures precise static pressure and optimal CFM delivery required for consistent ignition and burner operation. As a direct-fit component, it simplifies field installation for contractors, maintaining the integrity of the airtight combustion seal. This furnace inducer fan features a durable housing and a balanced impeller to minimize vibration and bearing wear, addressing common vent motor noise issues. When diagnosing a pressure switch lockout or a failed combustion blower, utilizing this genuine ICP replacement blower ensures the system returns to its original performance profile without the complications of universal fit brackets.

Common Questions

What are the signs that a draft inducer blower needs replacement?
Technicians typically look for a "ticking" or "grinding" sound indicating bearing failure, or a persistent pressure switch error code (often 3 flashes) when the motor fails to reach the necessary RPM to vent the system safely.

Is the 1172824 blower assembly compatible with high-efficiency condensing furnaces?
Yes, this assembly is designed for specific ICP-branded high-efficiency units. Always verify the model and serial number of the furnace to ensure the 1172824 matches the required static pressure curve for your specific heat exchanger configuration.

Does this assembly include the necessary gaskets for installation?
Proper installation requires a secure seal between the inducer and the collector box. It is professional best practice to inspect the existing gasket or use high-temperature RTV silicone if a pre-cut gasket is not pre-installed on the housing to prevent CO leakage.
