Installation
Install location:
The RP-Series 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
Power Vent installation.
Basic Operation:
The gas control components of this fireplace are located in the
bottom of the firebox below the burner system. All models are
supplied with a Honeywell smart valve gas control and do
NOT
have a variable flame control. A differential pressure switch
is located at the bottom of the firebox monitors airflow and
controls the gas valve. A thermal switch located on the top of
the firebox acts as a secondary safety system and shuts down
the fireplace in the event that normal operating temperatures
exceeded. These components communicate with the electrical
control panel through a six conductor cable supplied with the
fireplace.
To operate the fireplace, Montigo supplies 20' of low voltage
wire from the electrical control panel. Connect the two wire
harnesses to a standard single pole ON/OFF switch to the
location of your choice. You may extend these wires up to 100'
in length with a wire of equal quality.
This fireplace is equipped with lights which need to be wired
through a wall switch or dimmer circuit as shown in the
schematic.
ON/OFF control of this appliance can also be performed using
an optional remote control available from your Montigo dealer.
