Ideal Vogue C26 / C32 / C40 Diverter Valve with Head – Refurbished | Part No. 176867

A faulty diverter valve on an Ideal Vogue combi boiler is one of the most common causes of lost hot water, no central heating, or a boiler that switches erratically between modes. The diverter valve — complete with its motorised actuator head — controls priority switching between the heating circuit and the DHW circuit in response to demand. When the valve body seizes, the seals degrade, or the actuator head fails, the boiler loses its ability to manage this switching reliably. The Ideal Vogue C26 / C32 / C40 Diverter Valve with Head (Part No. 176867 / Head: 174813) is the correct OEM replacement assembly for restoring full combi boiler operation.

This is a professionally refurbished genuine Ideal Vogue diverter valve and head assembly. Each unit is fully stripped, with the valve body, internal seals, O-rings, and actuator head motor all inspected and replaced as required. Following refurbishment, the complete assembly is pressure-tested and function-cycled through multiple switching operations to confirm smooth, reliable performance before dispatch. Supplied as a complete valve-and-head unit, it is a direct drop-in replacement requiring no additional components.
