Prodigy Fireplace
Introduction
Prodigy series replaces are supplied as a complete system consisting of the rebox, a power vent termination (roof mount, wall
mount, or inline) and an electrical control panel. The venting required for the operation of the system must be eld supplied.
Power vent:
Details on power venting can be found in Section 6.
Flue Venting:
The ue pipe installed from the rebox to the power vent module is eld supplied and must be UL or ULc listed type B vent pipe
with an I.D. dimension as shown in Table 2.
NOTE FOR INLINE POWER VENT INSTALLATION: The ue pipe from the outlet side of the inline power vent to the exterior of
the building must be a sealed pressure stack pipe system. The exhaust gases in this portion of the vent system are under a posi-
tive pressure during operation; an unsealed vent pipe will allow exhaust gases to enter the living space.
Should the power vent cease to function or not provide adequate draft at any time during operation of the unit, the ue gas
vacuum pressure safety switch will prevent operation of the replace.
Combustion Air:
The combustion air or fresh air supply connections must be piped to ensure no reduction or restriction to the air supply occurs.
The amount of air required to safely and efciently run this unit has been pre-determined and must not be altered without consul-
tation with the factory. A heat sensor switch will turn off the burner if a restricted fresh air intake causes vent temperatures to rise.
Some locations allow for fresh air to be drawn from the room in which the replace is installed. This type of installation is accept-
able from a functional perspective so long as adequate free air is available in the room, but, local codes may not allow this type of
venting. Always check local regulations for venting before installing the replace.
Electrical Control Panel:
Details on system wiring, power requirements and the Montigo Prodigy control panel can be found in Section 7.
See the overviews of system components and connections in Figures 2-4.

Table 2: Product Specications
The Prodigy replace can be congured in a number of ways. The technical specications of the unit depend primarily on the
width of the replace, since a wider unit has a larger burner, which uses more fuel and air. See the tables below for specications.

Installation
Section 4: Clearances and Framing
CLEARANCES:
The replace may be installed in any location that maintains
proper clearances to air conditioning ducts, electrical wiring
and plumbing.
The Montigo Prodigy Fireplace is a zero clearance appliance
Table 4: Product Clearances
Clearances
Sides 0”
Back 0”
Glass / Opening * 1/8”
Top 0”
Floor 0”
NOTES:
* Distance from the edge of the nished materials to ensure
removal of glass is possible for future cleaning and service
**Type B vent pipe clearances must meet the B Vent
manufacturer’s recommendation.
FRAMING:
Montigo recommends that framing is performed once the
unit is on site, if this is not feasible, however, the space for
the rebox can be framed ahead of time using the overall
unit dimensions shown in Table 3.
The illustrations on this page are of a single sided unit,
though the procedure for framing single sided and see-
through units is the same. See the page 11 for see through
illustrations.
STEP 1: Frame the opening shown in Figure 6 for the unit
based on the dimensions shown in Table 3. Ensure ac-
cess is left for connections of gas, electrical and venting as
required.
STEP 2: Place the unit. Complete all connections
STEP 3: Backframe the unit with framing materials followed
by nishing materials. Ensure access for service as re-
quired.
STEP 4: Refer to Section 5: Finishing.
