ICP Gas Valve Support Bracket for RGS102HECB0AAA — OEM 1178238 | Ships Today

Overview

This is the factory gas valve support bracket (OEM part 1178238) for the ICP Tempstar Heil RGS102HECB0AAA gas furnace. The bracket secures the gas valve to the burner assembly, holding it in correct alignment with the manifold and burner orifices. While it is not a wear item like a valve or igniter, a bent, corroded, or missing bracket lets the gas valve shift, stressing the manifold pipe joints and causing gas leaks, misaligned flame, or rattling during blower operation. Replacing a damaged bracket restores rigid, leak-free mounting of the valve.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off gas at the manual valve and disconnect electrical power. Verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the furnace blower-compartment and burner-compartment doors.
3. Document — Photograph the gas valve, bracket, and manifold orientation before disassembly.
4. Remove — Disconnect the valve from the manifold, unfasten the old bracket from the burner assembly, and lift it out.
5. Install — Mount the new bracket, refit the gas valve, and reconnect the manifold using approved pipe sealant.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then leak-check every joint with soap solution and confirm normal ignition.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Gas valve sags, tilts, or shifts on the manifold
• Visible rust, cracks, or bends in the existing bracket
