Heil Quaker ICP 1186071 Box Kit
The Heil Quaker ICP 1186071 Collector Box Kit is a critical OEM component designed for high-efficiency condensing gas furnaces. As a genuine replacement part, this kit resolves common furnace pressure switch errors caused by cracked or deteriorating collector boxes. When the secondary heat exchanger transitions from gas to liquid, the resulting condensate must be managed through this specific condensing furnace collector box to prevent moisture from reaching the inducer or back-feeding into the heat exchanger cells. This kit replaces legacy part number 1193861 and is compatible with several ICP furnace models including G96VTN, R95ESN, and R92ESN series units.
For a reliable seal and proper furnace drainage, this 1186071 box kit includes the collector box gasket, which is essential for maintaining the negative pressure required to close the pressure switch and initiate the heating cycle. Technicians should verify that the old mounting surface is completely clean of residual adhesive before installing this OEM furnace repair kit. Using the Heil Quaker 1186071 ensures that flue gases are directed correctly through the inducer assembly while managing acidic condensate, protecting the longevity of the heat exchanger and preventing intermittent system lockouts during cold weather operation.
