Laars Mascot FT HTP P-950 EH Details

The Laars Mascot FT HTP boiler series, featuring the P-950EH Control Display, stands out as a highly efficient and versatile solution for residential hydronic heating. Achieving an impressive 95% AFUE, it dramatically reduces energy consumption while offering precise control. Its sophisticated modulating gas valve allows for dynamic heating, adjusting output from 100% down to as low as 10% on the 199 MBH model. This wide turndown ratio ensures optimal comfort and efficiency by precisely matching heating demand, avoiding wasteful on/off cycling.

This boiler offers exceptional fuel flexibility, configured for Natural Gas (NG) from the factory but readily field-convertible to Propane (LP) with an included conversion kit. At its core is a durable stainless steel heat exchanger with finned aluminum core fire tubes, designed for low pressure drop and long-term reliability. The advanced pre-mix ceramic fiber burner ensures clean combustion, contributing to a Low NOx system that surpasses stringent air quality regulations and promotes environmental responsibility.

Central to its user experience is the P-950EH Control Display, providing an intuitive interface for monitoring and adjusting system parameters. It integrates advanced features like outdoor reset functionality, which intelligently adjusts the boiler's target temperature based on external conditions. This proactive control enhances energy efficiency and maintains consistent indoor comfort. Furthermore, the system accepts external 0-10VDC temperature setpoint signals, enabling seamless integration with sophisticated building management systems for enhanced automation.

Safety is paramount with the Mascot FT HTP. It's equipped with multiple protective devices, including an ASME 30 psi pressure relief valve to safeguard against overpressure within the heating system. An automatic low water cut-off (LWCO) prevents damage from dry-firing, while overheat temperature sensors and a burner overheat switch ensure safe operation under all conditions. Additionally, it features both blocked vent and condensate pressure switches, alongside a gas leak detection system for comprehensive safety monitoring, alerting users to potential issues promptly.

Installation flexibility is a key advantage of this wall-mounted unit. It accommodates various venting options, including direct, single, or concentric vent configurations, utilizing common, readily available materials like PVC, CPVC, polypropylene, or stainless steel. The unit comes complete with essential accessories such as a robust wall mount bracket, a pressure relief valve, and a built-in condensate trap that requires no priming, which significantly simplifies the installation process for qualified technicians, reducing time and complexity on-site.

Beyond its powerful performance, the Mascot FT HTP boiler is engineered for minimal maintenance, though annual inspection by a qualified professional is highly recommended to ensure continuous optimum performance and extend its lifespan. Features like the automatic air vent further contribute to hassle-free operation by continuously purging air from the system. Its thoughtful design, robust safety features, and user-friendly controls make the Laars Mascot FT HTP a reliable and energy-efficient choice for modern residential heating applications, offering peace of mind and long-term value.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can't find the answer you need? Here are some frequently asked questions about the Laars Mascot FT HTP P-950 EH Boiler, and we answer them below.


What type of fuel does the Laars Mascot FT boiler use?
The Laars Mascot FT is factory configured for Natural Gas (NG), but it is field-convertible to Propane (LP) using an included conversion kit. This allows for flexibility depending on your home's fuel supply.

What is the purpose of the P-950EH on the boiler?
The P-950EH is the advanced Control Display unit for the Laars Mascot FT boiler. It provides a user-friendly interface for setting temperatures, viewing operational status, and accessing various system parameters and diagnostic information.

How efficient is the Laars Mascot FT boiler?
The Laars Mascot FT series boasts a high condensing efficiency with an AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating of 95%. This high efficiency translates to significant energy savings and lower operating costs.

What kind of venting materials can be used with this boiler?
The boiler can be vented with Schedule 40 PVC, CPVC, or polypropylene materials that comply with ULC-S636, ANSI/ASTM standards, or a stainless steel venting system that complies with UL 1738 Standard and ULC S636.

Does the boiler have freeze protection?
Yes, the boiler includes a System Freeze Protection Mode. When this mode is active, it helps protect the internal components from freezing, which is crucial in colder climates. It should be ON during normal operation.

How do I change the heating (CH) set point temperature?
To change the Central Heat (CH) set point, press the 'C' button on the control display. The CH Icon and current set point will flash. Turn the 'E' dial to adjust the temperature, then press the dial to save and exit. The default is 180°F (82°C) with a range of 86°F (30°C) to 180°F (82°C).

What should I do if I smell gas near the boiler?
If you smell gas, immediately follow the WARNING instructions: Do not try to light any appliance, do not touch any electrical switch, and do not use any phone in your building. Immediately call your gas supplier from a nearby phone or call the fire department. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified professional.

Is annual maintenance required for the Laars Mascot FT boiler?
Yes, in addition to daily and monthly visual inspections, a qualified service agency should conduct a detailed annual inspection of all flue product carrying areas of the boiler and its venting system to ensure continued optimal performance and safety.

Can this boiler operate during a power outage?
No, the FT Series boiler cannot be operated during an electrical power outage. If there's an extended power outage with danger from freezing, the boiler and all other water systems should be completely drained by a qualified service person.

Does the Control Display have a programmable thermostat or daily timer?
No, the P-950EH Control Display does NOT have a daily timer or programmable thermostat. External controls or a separate programmable thermostat would be needed for scheduling features.

How does the boiler handle condensate?
The boiler generates mildly acidic condensate (pH 4-5). It must be drained in accordance with local regulations, typically to a floor drain, laundry tub, or a condensate pump. A neutralizer kit (optional) is highly recommended to protect drainage pipes from acidic damage.

What is the turndown ratio for the MFTHW199 model?
The MFTHW199 model of the Laars Mascot FT features an impressive 10:1 turndown ratio. This means it can modulate its heat output from 100% down to 10% of its maximum capacity, providing precise heating control and energy efficiency.

What is included with the Laars Mascot FT boiler?
The appliance typically includes the boiler unit itself, installation instructions and user’s manual, a condensate hose, a wall mount bracket with anchors, a 3/4” 30psi pressure relief valve for the CH line, and mesh screens. A propane conversion orifice and an outdoor temperature sensor are also included.
