  • Required: 5 in. / 8 in. direct vent pipe, termination, firestops and heat shield. Montigo-approved Duravent parts such as 58DVA-HC, 58DVA-VCH, 58DVA-36 and 58DVA-E90 connect through Montigo's 58DVA-AD-M1 and M2 adapters

Installation Notes

Standoffs (7-1/2 in.) must go on top of the fireplace to limit mantel temperatures, and combustible floors other than wood need a wood or metal panel the full width and depth of the unit. Do not recess the unit into a wall cavity. Gas and venting work must be done by a licensed installer. In New York City, direct vent gas fireplaces must meet the NYC Fuel Gas Code and need a permitted installation. Book a consultation and we will confirm venting and framing before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes standard on the Basic model?

Montigo lists the concealed burner with ice fireglass and the Proflame 2 Basic control system as standard. Remote control, fans, battery backup and the black porcelain liner are listed as options.

Can it vent out the back?

Yes. The manual covers top and rear venting, with rear venting allowed straight through the wall on natural gas, while propane needs a multi-elbow layout.

Can I tile over the frame?

Yes. Montigo notes that rock or tile can be installed over the firebox frame for a minimalist look. Keep the manual clearances to combustibles.
