ICP Transformer for WAHT184A1 — 40VA 208/230V to 24V | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM ICP control transformer (part #1172028) steps 208/230V line voltage down to the 24V control voltage used by the ICP/Tempstar/Heil WAHT184A1 air handler. Rated at 40VA, it powers the thermostat, control board logic, and low-voltage switching. When a transformer fails — usually from a short or an overloaded control circuit — the system goes completely dead on a call: no blower, no heat, and a blank or unpowered thermostat.
