Installation

Installing The Fireplace Shell

The fireplace may be installed in any location that maintains proper clearances to air conditioning ducts, electrical wiring and plumbing.

Safety, as well as efficiency of operation, must be considered when selecting the fireplace location. Try to select a location that does not interfere with room traffic, has adequate ventilation, and offers an accessible pathway for Direct Vent & Combustion Air Kit installation.

The fireplace dimensions are shown below:

WARNING

:

When this appliance is installed directly on carpeting, tile or any combustible material other than wood flooring, it must be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the appliance.

For protection against freezing temperatures, it is recommended that outer walls of the chase be insulated with a vapour barrier. This will reduce the possibility of a cold-air convection current on the fireplace.

Framing

Frame the fireplace cavity according to Figure 2a.

Slide the fireplace into the cavity.

Tack four studs (40" length) in place as shown in Figure 2b. Secure the fireplace in position by nailing into these cleats.

Installation

Installing The Gas Line

The gas line must be installed before finishing the M38ODV-ST fireplace. Natural Gas requires a minimum inlet gas supply pressure of

5.5" W.C. & a manifold pressure of 3.5" W.C. Propane Gas requires a minimum inlet gas supply pressure of 11" W.C. & a manifold pressure of 10" W.C. Provision must also be made for a 1/8" N.P.T. plugged tapping and be accessible for test gauge connection immediately upstream of the gas supply controls to the appliance. The fireplace gas connection and the main operating gas valve is located behind the removable brass trim at the bottom of the unit and need only be attached to the gas line with an approved fitting, as required by the

applicable installation codes.

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Vent Installation

This section covers the installation of direct venting and terminations.

For a detailed diagram of allowed termination locations, see Appendix B.

Installation Requirements

The M38ODV-ST fireplace uses premium venting components with:

5" inner dia. /8" outer dia.

Minimum clearance to combustible construction around the vent pipe is 1" on all sides, except on horizontal venting where the top of the pipe must have a clearance of at least 2".

Use only certified Montigo vent components. (Use of other parts will void the Montigo warranty, and may impede the operation of the fireplace.)

All joints must be secured with a minimum of two screws per joint

Vent terminations must not be recessed in walls or siding

Horizontal runs must be supported by a minimum of two supports per horizontal run. A minimum of one screw on each side of support is also required

Flex vent sections may be stretched up to 50% of their total length

(eg. a 24" section may be stretched to 36")

Maximum horizontal run for a flex section with no vertical rise is 3 feet.

Flex vent sections over 3 feet must fall within the limits set by the venting graph and must have a minimum vertical rise of 3 inches per foot of flex.

Venting components can be used in any combination of solid/rigid

Solid vent sections may be cut less than half way from the tapered end

Venting components can be used in any combination of solid/rigid pipe or flex pipe and in any orientation (Male connectors can face in any direction)

n CAUTIONS:

Vent terminations can be very hot. If the termination is less than

7 feet above a public walkway, it should be fitted with a certified

Montigo Heat Guard. (Part no. PTKOG)

* After gas line is connected each appliance connection,

valve and valve train must be checked while under normal operating pressure with either a liquid solution, or leak detection device, to locate any source of leak. Tighten any areas where bubbling appears or leak is detected until bubbling stops completely or leak is no longer detected. Do

NOT use a flame of any kind to test for leaks.

These actions will affect the operation of the fireplace, and may be hazardous.

from obstructing the vent termination.

Installing The Remote Switch

The M38ODV-ST is equipped with a remote-operated valve, located behind the removable brass grille, to the right of the gas control valve

(refer to Figure 16.) The valve is pre-wired and completely self contained to generate its own power. DO NOT connect any external power to it.

Note: The switch location must not exceed 30' from the fireplace.

Top Vent Venting Runs

Before you install any venting, you must determine whether the venting run will be acceptable. Unacceptable venting can affect the fireplace's combustion.

for installations with horizontal venting runs of 0-16 feet, use the vent graph, as described below

the maximum horizontal vent run is 16 feet.

The Venting Graph

Measure the vertical height from the fireplace hearth to the centre of the termination and the horizontal run from the from the fireplace flue collar to the wall flange of the termination. Plot on the Venting Graph

(Fig. 4) with an 'X'.

If the 'X' falls on or above the top boundary of the shaded area, the installation is acceptable.

Example A: (Acceptable Installation)

If the vertical dimension from the hearth is 72", and the horizontal run to the wall flange of the vent termination is 120", this would be an acceptable installation.

Example B: (Acceptable Installation)

If the vertical dimension from the hearth is 66" and the horizontal run to the wall flange of the vent termination is 30", this would be an acceptable installation.

Example C: (Unacceptable Installation)

If the vertical dimension from the floor of the fireplace is 48" and the horizontal run to the wall flange of the vent termination is 84", this would NOT be an acceptable installation.

Installation

Example:

A 10' section and an elbow used in conjunction with 3 ft. flex section

(PFL-3) will, when extended in a five foot chase, allow for a maximum horizontal run of twelve and one-half feet from the centre of the fireplace to outside wall and a minimum of 7'6" when retracted in opposite direction. (See Figure 6 and 7.)

"D" flex sections and "E" solid sections may be used in conjunction with one another to obtain different possible horizontal length installations.

NOTE: Flex section must not exceed maximum horizontal length of 3 feet. (See Figure 8.)

Heat Shields

Due to high flue temperatures, heat shields are required on all M38ODV-ST installations at the point where the venting passes through the wall to connect to the termination.

Using the heat shield, vent clearances at this point are 1" to combustible construction.

Combustible mantles and facings.

Mantels & Surrounds

NOTE: National Canadian Gas Association mantel test requirements are for fire hazard prevention to combustible materials.

New technology, to meet consumer and government demands for the wise use of energy, has prompted us to manufacture many models of fireplaces which are hot, fuel and energy efficient.

Please be aware; temperatures over the mantel will rise above normal room temperature and walls above fireplace may be hot to touch.

We recommend careful consideration be given to the effects of elevated mantel temperatures which may be in excess of product design, for example: candles, plastic or pictures. This can cause melting, deformation, discoloration or premature failure of T.V. and radio components.

Finishing Around the Fireplace

Combustible mantels and mouldings may be safely installed over the top and on the front of the fireplace provided that they do not project beyond shaded area shown in Figure 11a. Side wall clearances are 0".

Combustible surrounds may be installed with 0" clearance to the side of the fireplace as shown in Figure 11b.

Fireplace Facing

When selecting the finish material for your fireplace, it is important to remember the following: TRIMS MUST NOT BE OBSTRUCTED IN

ANY WAY - to do so restricts the air supply for the control compartments and heat exchanger it also prevents access for servicing controls.

The face of the fireplace may be painted to match the room decor, provided you use a heat-resistant paint. Decorative facing must not extend past the fireplace opening at all, because it will interfere with the access to retainers for removal of glass door.

1 1/2" clearance to combustibles

(0" to standoffs on sides)

Combustible construction allowed in shaded area.

Figure 11b.

Combustible surrounds.

Painting:

Special care is recommended by the Master Painters and Decorators

Association, when painting the fireplace surrounds, to select and apply a quality Alkyd sealer prior to the applying of latex paints. This is to prevent leaching of water from evaporation and causing a brownish staining effect to paint over coats.

General

Have the fireplace installation inspected yearly, including a visual check of the vent system, the burner and the pilot flame. For your convenience a 1/8" manifold pressure tap is supplied on the gas valve for a test gauge connection. See Figure 16.

For Natural Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure of 5.5" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 3.5" W.C.

For Propane Gas this appliance requires a minimum inlet pressure of 11" W.C. and a manifold pressure of 10" W.C.

Always keep the fireplace area clear and free of combustible materials, as well as gasoline and other flammable vapours and liquids.

Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.

Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

Cleaning

When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some smoking and a visible film may be left on the glass. This is a normal condition, and is the result of burningthe protective coatings on new metal.

Glass must be cleaned periodically to remove any film (a normal biproduct of combustion) which may be visible. Film can easily be removed by removing the door, as shown on page 9. Handle the door carefully, and clean it with non-abrasive glass cleaners. One of the most effective products is Kel Kem.

Silicone seals on inner door during initial firing will "off gas", leaving a visual deposit of a white substance on combustion chamber walls.

This can easily be removed by following the steps described above.

Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control compartment, burner, and firebox free from dust and lint.

Logs may be cleaned periodically with a vacuum to remove soot.

WARNING:

Do not attempt to clean glass when hot.

Do not clean glass with abrasive materials as any glass etching may cause premature glass failure.
