The Heil Quaker ICP 1162036 Gas Valve is an essential OEM replacement component for maintaining precise combustion control in residential furnaces. This intermittent pilot natural gas valve is factory-calibrated for 3.5" WC and utilizes a 24V 60Hz coil to maintain the duty cycle required for high-efficiency heating operations. Designed specifically for International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment, this 1/2" NPT valve is often found in units under the Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire brands. It features a standard opening characteristic to ensure smooth ignition sequences and the mechanical reliability needed for furnace gas valve replacement in demanding environments. Field technicians should note that while this is a natural gas component, it is compatible with specific conversion kits for LP applications. When your current unit fails to open or presents irregular burner patterns, utilizing this ICP 1162036 OEM part ensures the manifold pressure remains consistent with manufacturer specifications, preventing common lockout codes and enhancing overall system HVAC part compatibility.

What are the signs that I need to replace my ICP gas valve?
Technicians often look for "no-heat" calls where the furnace inducer runs and the igniter glows, but the main burners fail to light. If 24V is present at the valve terminals during the ignition trial but the valve fails to open, a replacement of the 1162036 is typically necessary. Physical symptoms like gas odors near the valve assembly also dictate immediate changeouts.

Can this natural gas valve be used for Propane (LP) systems?
The ICP 1162036 is a natural gas valve. However, it can be converted for LP use if a specific manufacturer-approved conversion kit is installed. Correct regulator adjustment to target 10.0" WC is required by a qualified tech during these conversions.

Is this 1162036 gas valve compatible with other ICP brands?
Yes, this part serves as a direct replacement for many units manufactured by International Comfort Products, which includes brands such as Tempstar, Comfortmaker, KeepRite, and Arcoaire, provided the specific model calls for this part number.
