SECTION 2.

Locating the Appliance

2.1 Locating the Appliance

The Mascot LX is designed for indoor

wall-mounted installations only.

The Mascot LX must be mounted to a suitable wall by

a qualified heating contractor under the guidelines of a

wall mounted boiler or combination unit. Use a suitable

wall, either concrete or wood and use the appropriate

fasteners for that wall. Failure to wall mount this boiler

using correct fasteners will affect the performance and

life expectancy of the boiler and will void the warranty.
The appliance should be located to provide clearances

on all sides for maintenance and inspection. It should

not be located in an area where leakage of any

connections will result in damage to the area adjacent to

the appliance, the wall that it is hung on, or to the lower

floors of the structure.
When such a location is not available, it is recommended

that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed

under the appliance.
The appliance is design certified by CSA-International

for wall-mounted installation in basements; in closets,

utility rooms or alcoves. The location for the appliance

should be chosen with regard to the vent pipe lengths

and external plumbing and on a plumb (vertical) wall.

The unit shall be installed such that the gas ignition

system components are protected from water (dripping,

spraying, rain, etc.) during operation and service

(circulator replacement, control replacement, etc.).

If the vent terminal and/or combustion air terminal

terminate through a wall, and there is potential for snow

accumulation in the local area, both terminals must

be installed at an appropriate level above grade or the

maximum expected snow line.
The dimensions and requirements that are shown in

Table 3

should be met when choosing the locations for

the appliance.

2.2 Correct Vent Distance from Outside

Wall or Roof Termination

The forced draft combustion air blower in the appliance

has sufficient power to vent properly when the

guidelines in Table 4 are followed.
For concentric vent terminal kit (optional), follow

installation instructions included with the kit.

NOTE: When located on the same wall, the Minimum

Venting Distance is found on

Figure 11
