Heil Quaker ICP 1172825 Motor Assembly

The Heil Quaker ICP 1172825 Draft Inducer Motor Assembly is a high-performance, 2-speed centrifugal blower engineered for 90+ AFUE gas furnaces. This assembly is the direct OEM replacement for the 330701-712 and is a critical component for maintaining safe combustion and effective flue gas extraction. Built by Fasco (Model 70626158), this motor features a 1/20 HP output operating at 115V and 60Hz. It utilizes a 2-speed configuration with 3000/2000 RPM capabilities to match the heating demand of multi-stage systems. The unit includes sealed ball bearings, providing smooth rotation and durability against the high-heat environment of the heat exchanger. This complete furnace draft inducer kit comes with an integrated plastic housing, a 6 MFD capacitor, a wire harness adapter, and the necessary exhaust gasket to ensure a pressurized, leak-free seal during installation.

Key Benefits

• Broad Compatibility: Serving as the primary OEM furnace replacement part for brands including Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire.
• Precision Engineering: The counterclockwise lead end rotation and Fasco U62B1 motor type ensure exact mechanical alignment with original factory specifications.
• Efficient Combustion: Specifically designed for 90+ 2-stage furnaces to safely purge the heat exchanger and prevent carbon monoxide buildup.
• Extended Service Life: Features a thermally protected motor and permanently lubricated bearings to minimize mechanical drag and operational noise.

Common Questions

What are the symptoms of a failing draft inducer?
Technicians typically look for a "no-heat" call where the pressure switch fails to close. If you hear a loud screeching or grinding noise upon startup, it indicates the internal bearings are seizing. Digital multimeter testing should confirm 115V at the motor leads from the control board; if voltage is present but the motor won't spin, the assembly requires replacement.

Does this kit include the mounting gasket?
Yes, this 1172825 motor assembly includes the required 1014425 exhaust gasket and 330721-401 wire harness adapter. Using the new gasket is mandatory to maintain a proper pressure seal and prevent flue gas leakage into the cabinet.

Can I use this for a single-stage furnace?
This specific motor is a 2-speed assembly designed for 2-stage heating systems. Always verify your specific model number (e.g., C9MPV or H9MPT series) against the technical data to ensure the control board can recognize the high and low-speed signals.
