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
.
