4.2 Wall Mount Bracket
4.2.1 The installation height and location
The installation height depends on your installation scenario.
With all clearances considered, and given adequate positioning
for air supply and venting, you will need to determine the
best position to mount the Wall Mount Bracket. The wall
must be concrete, wood, or plywood over studs, and
must be strong enough to hold the water heater!
• Start by familiarizing yourself to how the
included Wall Mount Bracket hooks underneath
the two Hangers that are attached to the back of
the water heater. The ‘hooks’ of the Wall Mount Bracket
will be
3”
from the Top of the water heater once the water
heater is hung.
• Position the Wall Mount Bracket at the location that it will go,
being sure that it is level, and then drill 4 holes (0.47”dia)
with a 1/2” drill bit, into the wall through the Bracket.
• If mounting to a concrete wall, then use the concrete anchors. If
onto wood or 5/8” (16 mm) plywood, then use the wood screws.
Do not hang the Mascot ST onto
sheetrock unless it is possible to
fasten directly into the structural
studs. If the included anchors
do not suit your installation,
you must use ‘Field Supplied’
anchors that are appropriate
for the wall’s construction.

4.2.2 Hang the Water Heater
• Lift the water heater up, align the Hangers
on the back of the water heater with the hooks
on the Wall Mount Bracket, and hang the water
heater onto the Wall Mount Bracket. Do a visual
inspection to make sure that the water heater
is hanging properly onto the hooks of the Wall
Mount Bracket.
• Fasten the bottom of the water heater to the
wall using 2 suitable wall anchors (field supplied).
