Section 3: Venting
Montigo supplies a variety of power venting options. The location of
the power vent should be selected and laid out to provide the most
efficient possible run to an external wall or through the roof.
Notes For Planning Venting:
• R-Series fireplaces are Power Vent Designated.
• Venting originates from the top or rear of the unit.
• Venting can terminate through the roof or exterior wall.
• For a detailed diagram of allowed termination locations, see
Appendix A.
• Once the termination location has been established refer to the
appropriate section for installation details.
• All fireplaces are shipped Top Vent from the factory.
• Follow the chart on page 14 or page 15 for maximum ventrun and
maximum elbows.
