The defrost control board is the brain of the heat pump's defrost cycle: it monitors the outdoor coil temperature and ambient conditions, then commands the unit to periodically reverse into defrost mode to melt frost and ice off the outdoor coil during heating operation. It coordinates the reversing valve, the condenser fan, and the timing intervals that keep the coil clear so the system can maintain heating efficiency in cold weather. When this board fails, the heat pump may run continuously with a frosted or iced-over outdoor coil, fail to initiate or terminate defrost, short-cycle, or lose heating capacity entirely. Operating on a 24V low-voltage control signal, this board is a direct factory replacement that restores correct defrost timing and sequencing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1173636\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDefrost Control Board\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTempstar (ICP \/ Heil)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeat Pump Defrost Control\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Direct Replacement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngineered for the Tempstar T4H330GKE200 heat pump and shared ICP-family platforms sold under the Heil, ICP, and Comfortmaker brands that use the same factory control architecture.
