Common Questions
Is the 1170909 gas valve compatible with LP (Propane) gas?
Standard Heil Quaker ICP 1170909 gas valves are typically configured for natural gas from the factory. For LP applications, a specific conversion kit must be installed by a qualified technician to change the regulator spring and orifice settings.
What are the symptoms of a failing ICP 1170909 gas valve?
Common indicators include intermittent ignition, the burner failing to stay lit despite a valid flame signal, or a "no heat" call where the 24V gas valve solenoid is energized but fails to open the internal port.
Does this valve require a specific orientation during installation?
Yes, for optimal performance, the ICP gas valve should be installed according to the flow direction arrow on the body and typically mounted within 90 degrees of the upright position to prevent debris accumulation or diaphragm sticking.
