What'S oPtional:
There are two optional accessories for your Montigo Flush face Direct vent fireplace; a fan
kit and a surround.
The fan kit requires switched 110 volts AC to operate and should be installed in the fire-
place before the fireplace is installed in the building. It is not controlled by the remote
control.
The surrounds are decorative. They serve the function of framing the fireplace opening.
Montigo currently offers two surrounds; one manufactured from steel, painted flat black
to match the fireplace, or the other formed from stainless steel. The customer may also
choose to design their own using materials such as stone or tile.
PlaCing a montigo FluSh FaCE FirEPlaCE:
The Montigo Flush face Direct vent fireplaces are zero clearance fireplaces which can be
installed in a variety of locations. For example, you could install it against an outside wall and the
unit could be vented out the rear or side, (12" maximum pipe length). The Montigo Direct vent
fireplace can also be installed along a inside wall as well. The vent pipe would run vertically, hori-
zontally or a combination of both.
Note: Read the venting requirement for your specific Montigo Direct Vent fireplace.
Although the industry term zero-clearance is used to describe the Direct vent fireplace of choice,
there are some limitations and restrictions. This installation of the typical Montigo flush face fire-
place will proceed from the bottom of the unit, and will hopefully be explained as clearly as pos-
sible in a step by step format.
Montigo flush face fireplaces vary in weight, but the installation type or specification does
not change due to this specification. The Montigo flush face fireplace can sit on any mate-
rial that provides a level and solid support structure for a fireplace. Standard 2 x 4 con-
struction is generally sufficient to install a Montigo flush face fireplace.
Note: If the fireplace is extremely large, as in some of Montigo's Custom fireplaces, it
will require engineering to install and support.
The Montigo flush face Direct Vent fireplace burns either natural gas (NG) or liquified pe-
troleum gas (LP) but not both. You must specify your preference at the time of order.
