Heil Quaker ICP 1172823 Inducer Assembly

The Heil Quaker ICP 1172823 Inducer Assembly is a high-performance vent blower motor specifically engineered for 90+ AFUE single-stage condensing furnaces. As the direct OEM replacement for 330701-701, this assembly ensures systemic compatibility with a wide range of International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment, including Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker brands. This furnace draft inducer is built with a thermally protected 1/20 HP motor, operating at 115V and 3000 RPM to facilitate safe combustion venting and prevent vacuum failures that lead to pressure switch lockout.

For field technicians, this unit simplifies the repair process by arriving as a complete exhaust vent assembly, typically including the housing and necessary gaskets to maintain a secure air seal. Replacing a failing ICP 1172823 inducer is critical when your diagnostics point to a high-limit trip or a failed inducer that isn’t clearing the heat exchanger’s condensed flue gases. This factory-authorized component restores the exact static pressure required for safe furnace ignition and continuous burner operation without the noise issues common in universal aftermarket alternatives.

Key Benefits:

• Perfect Mechanical Fit: Engineered as a drop-in replacement for the 330701-701 inducer, eliminating the need for mounting hole modifications or vent re-piping.
• Precision Sealed Housing: The integrated combustion inducer blower includes a durable housing designed to manage acidity in condensing furnace condensate.
• Thermal Protection: Features an internal thermal overload mechanism to protect the 3.3-frame motor from damage during extended run cycles.
• Operational Efficiency: Provides the precise CFM and static pressure needed to satisfy furnace pressure switch requirements for 90% plus efficiency units.

Common Questions:

Does this assembly include the mounting gasket?
Yes, as an OEM draft inducer replacement, it is designed to arrive with the necessary sealing hardware to ensure no exhaust leakage occurs at the heat exchanger interface.

Can I use this for a 2-stage furnace?
No, this specific 1172823 inducer assembly is calibrated for single-stage 115V applications. Always verify the motor speed and amperage requirements against your unit’s data plate.

Why is my inducer motor humming but not spinning?
This usually indicates a seized bearing or a failed start winding. Because these are factory-sealed units, replacing the entire furnace inducer assembly is the professional standard for reliable venting.
