L-Series DF-ST See-thru Gas Fireplace
Part No. XG0812
Installation
Cautions:
Vent terminations can be very hot. If the termination is less
than 7 feet above a public walkway, it should be tted with
a certied Montigo Heat Guard. (Part no. PTKOG).
Do not obstruct, or attempt to conceal, the vent termination.
These actions will affect the operation of the replace,
and may be hazardous.
In heavy snow areas, take extra care to prevent snow
buildup from obstructing the vent termination.
Use Montigo VSS Vinyl Heat Shield when using on
applications with vinyl siding to guard against possible
damage.

Installing The Gas Line
The gas line must be installed before completing the installation of the
L38DF-ST or L42DF-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
replace gas connection and the main operating gas valve is located
behind the removable trim at the bottom of the unit and need only be
attached to the gas line with an approved tting, as required by the
applicable installation codes.
To access the replace gas connection the main burner must be
removed as shown below in gure 5a.
• Only use gas shut-off valves approved for use by the state, province,
region, or governing body, in which the appliance is being installed, or
as required by the applicable installation codes.
• Flexible gas connectors must not exceed 3 feet in length, unless it is
allowable within applicable installation codes.
Note: 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.
Figure 5a. Gas line access.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shut-off 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.
Installation Requirements
L38-DF-ST and L42DF-ST fireplaces are certified for use with Montigo
Standard Series (5" / 8") venting components.
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 with no vertical rise is 6 feet.
Flex vent sections over 6 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.
Solid vent sections may be cut less than half way from the female 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)

Installing The Remote Switch
The L38DF-ST and L42DF-ST's gas valve, located behind the lower
trim, may be connected to a wall switch. The valve generates its own
power on a millivolt circuit. Use only low voltage wire, and DO NOT
connect any external power to it.
Note: The switch location must not exceed 30' from the replace.
