Heil Quaker ICP 1149514 Pilot Orifice
The Heil Quaker ICP 1149514 LP Pilot Orifice is a critical OEM component designed specifically for liquid propane (LP) conversion and maintenance in high-efficiency gas furnaces and boilers. As a genuine International Comfort Products (ICP) replacement part, this orifice ensures a precise fuel-to-air ratio, maintaining a stable pilot flame necessary for reliable ignition and thermocouple engagement. Measuring approximately 1/2 inch in length with a 1/4 inch outer diameter, this burner orifice is engineered with exacting tolerances to prevent common combustion issues such as "lazy" yellow flames or flickering pilots that lead to system lockout. This 10-pack is an essential stock item for contractors servicing brands under the ICP umbrella, including Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire. Replacing a fouled or corroded orifice with this OEM 1149514 part restores a sharp blue flame cone, ensuring the furnace ignition system operates at peak thermal efficiency without the safety risks associated with improper gas flow.
Key Benefits:
- Precise LP Calibration: Specifically sized for liquid propane applications to ensure optimal BTU output and clean combustion.
- OEM Compatibility: Guaranteed fit for ICP Heil Quaker equipment, eliminating the diagnostic guesswork of universal components.
- Reliable Ignition: Provides a consistent gas stream to maintain a strong pilot flame, preventing thermocouple drop-out and nuisance service calls.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-grade materials to resist carbon buildup and corrosion in high-heat environments.
- Contractor Ready: Convenient 10-pack ensures technicians have the necessary parts for LP conversion kits and routine seasonal maintenance.
Common Questions:
Can I use the 1149514 orifice for Natural Gas systems?
No, this part is specifically engineered for LP pilot orifice applications. Using an LP orifice with natural gas will result in an insufficient pilot flame and ignition failure due to the different pressure requirements of the fuels.
What are the signs that my current pilot orifice needs replacement?
If you notice a yellow pilot flame, soot accumulation around the pilot assembly, or if the furnace pilot won't stay lit even after cleaning, the orifice is likely restricted by debris or corrosion and requires a technical replacement.
Is this orifice compatible with other ICP brands?
Yes, the ICP 1149514 is extensively cross-referenced for use in Heil, Tempstar, Arcoaire, Comfortmaker, and Snyder General units. Always verify the part number against the specific furnace technical specifications before installation.
