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.

WARNING!

When pressure testing the fireplace, Gas line, and input system 

follow the appropriate local codes or your area. DO NOT connect 

the fireplace to pressures in excess of 1/2lb. This will damage the 

gas control valve.

 

„

The  manifold  outlet  pressure  is  set  from  the  factory  to  the 

appropriate pressure but should be verified.

 

„

To check pressures, control valves have a provision to remove 

a 1/8” N.PT. plug to be fitted with a hose barb.

 

„

Montigo  requires  a  service  shut  off  valve  be  located  in  an 

accessible location to isolate the gas supply.

 

„

Only install gas shut-off valves approved for use by the state, 

province, or other governing body in which the fireplace is being 

installed.

Section 4-3:

„

Flexible gas connectors must not exceed 3 feet in length, unless 

allowable within local regulations.

 

„

Connect incoming gas line to the 1/2"or 3/8" gas inlet port.

 

„

Purge all air out of gas line.

 

„

Check appliance connection, valve and valve train under normal 

operating pressure with a commercially available leak check 

solution.
