Gas Pressure

Optimum appliance performance requires proper inlet pressures.
Gas line sizing requirements will be determined in ANSI Z221.3

National Fuel Gas Code in the USA and CAN/CGA B149 in Canada.

Figure 15. Identifying the Gas Inlet

The manifold outlet pressure is set from the factory to the

appropriate pressure but should be verified.
To check pressures, gas valves have a provision to remove a

1/8” MPT plug and to be fitted with a hose barb.
Montigo requires a service shut off valve be located in an

accessible location to isolate the appliance.

Only install gas shut-off valves approved for use by the state,

province, or other governing body in which the fireplace is

being installed.

GAS CONNECTION

See

Figure 15 below for location of gas line access.

Flexible gas connectors must not exceed 3 feet in length, unless

allowable within local regulations.
Connect incoming gas line to the 1/2" MPT gas inlet.
Purge all air out of gas line before connecting.
Check appliance connection, valve and valve train under

normal operating pressure with a commercially available leak

check solution.
DO NOT USE A FLAME OF ANY KIND TO TEST FOR LEAKS.
