Theoretically it should be OK as the heat of the unit will be largely governed by the temperature of the water inside it. I am going to do exactly this when I fit a new boiler tomorrow but I would think a little more carefully about doing it with an older boiler where the case can get quite warm. If your boiler is a potterton netaheat which is what the diagram looks like then I would want a minimum of 6-8 inches between the bottom of the magnaclean and the top of the boiler.
