Installation Notes
Non-combustible framing is required for all Distinction models, built around a 2-1/4 in. platform so the supplied cement board fits; framing for the see-through is 59-3/4 in. W x 49-15/16 in. H x 17-11/16 in. D with at least 89 in. from the base of the unit to the ceiling. Because Distinction is heater rated, the chase must be vented, and Montigo recommends its Cool Wall Advantage kit where a TV, art or stone facing goes above. Both faces of the wall are finished, so plan facing materials for each room. Installation must be done by a qualified, licensed gas installer. In New York City, direct vent fireplaces fall under the NYC Fuel Gas Code, with a licensed master plumber and DOB filing where required; the termination location usually decides feasibility in apartments and townhouses. We confirm venting and permitting during a fireplace design consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I hang a TV above a see-through Distinction?
Distinction is heater rated, so heat above the opening has to be managed. Montigo designed the Cool Wall Advantage kit to divert that heat through a plenum or sidewall louvers; we plan it with the framing so the TV wall stays cool.
Do both sides need their own venting?
No. It is one sealed firebox with one 5 in. / 8 in. direct vent run that terminates through an exterior wall or the roof.
Does the see-through have fans?
Montigo lists fans as standard on the single-sided Distinction models, but they are not among the standard features of the D3615ST. Heat leaves through both glass faces and, if installed, the Cool Wall Advantage kit.
Can it run on propane?
Yes. Choose the propane option above, which includes the conversion kit; high fire stays at 35,000 BTU/h.
