The DelRay Linear 72" Full Load from Montigo
The Montigo DelRay Linear 72" Full Load (DRL7213NI-2) goes into a 16" framing depth — note the deeper 16" framing requirement on this size. No bump-out, no furring a wall forward just to swallow a firebox. And Montigo's firebox design lets combustible wood facing run right down to the glass opening, so the finished wall reads as one surface with fire in it rather than a metal box set into drywall. 35,000 BTU on natural gas at 64% efficiency; on propane, 32,000 BTU. Viewing area 72½" × 14 11/16". From $8,209, with a 15-year firebox warranty.
Choose the DelRay 72 if the wall is already spoken for. A media wall, a feature wall, a wall you are not willing to push into the room to make space for a fireplace — this one goes in at a framing depth the wall already has. Cool Wall Advantage lets combustible finishes come right down to the opening, so your millwork or stone runs to the glass instead of stopping at a metal border. It is approved for outdoor rooms, and it can be installed in manufactured homes.
It is not right if you need primary heat for a large space — at 35,000 BTU this is supplemental zone heat, not a furnace. It is not rated for installations above 4,500 feet elevation, and it cannot run vent-free: a Montigo direct-vent run (sold separately) is required.
Specifications
Framing dimensions are 81" wide × 33 11/16" high × 16" deep. Required clearances are 38½" to the top, 1¾" at the sides, 2" at the back, and 0" to the floor. The viewing area is 72½" × 14 11/16". It runs on natural gas or propane (conversion kit GCA019), uses intermittent pilot ignition (IPI), requires a standard 115V circuit, and is rated for elevations from 0 to 4,500 ft.
This is the Full Load configuration: it includes the Proflame 2 IPI system with multi-function remote (flame, fan, and lighting), an integrated blower, Invisimesh safety screen, reflective black glass liner, halogen downlighting, and battery backup. A WiFi dongle for app control is the one optional extra.
DelRay Linear 72: Basic vs. Full Load
Both configurations are the same fireplace — identical firebox, 35,000 BTU output, viewing area, and framing. The Full Load (DRL7213NI-2, $8,209) adds the Proflame 2 system with multi-function remote, integrated blower, reflective glass liner, halogen downlighting, and battery backup; the Basic (DRL7213NI, $5,859) starts with Proflame Basic ignition and the same Invisimesh safety screen, with those upgrades available individually. Rule of thumb: if the fireplace will be at eye level in a main living space, the Full Load's lighting, liner, and remote earn the difference; for a secondary room or a high mount, the Basic looks nearly identical for less.
Answers to common questions
Can I mount a TV above this fireplace?
Yes. Montigo's installation manual includes example TV installations for every DelRay Linear size, and the Cool Wall Advantage system allows combustible finishes — including a media wall — right down to the fireplace opening. The manual's example places a recessed TV niche a minimum of 38" above the top of the fireplace and at least 3" from the ceiling; our team will confirm the exact clearances for your layout.
What venting does it need, and is it included?
Venting is not included. The DelRay is a direct-vent fireplace that runs on Montigo's venting system, and the installation manual also approves alternate venting components from DuraVent, ICC, MetalFab, Selkirk, and Flexmaster (a DuraVent adaptor is available for collared components). Co-linear installs into an existing chimney are supported using DuraVent conversion parts. Send us your wall drawing and we'll spec the exact run and parts list before you order.
Does it work during a power outage?
Yes — the Full Load configuration includes battery backup, so the flame can be lit and run during an outage (the blower will not operate).
Can it go in an outdoor room?
Yes. The DelRay Linear is approved for outdoor rooms — covered outdoor living spaces — as well as indoor installations.
Is it approved for mobile or manufactured homes?
Yes, as an OEM installation in a manufactured home (USA) or mobile home, installed per the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard (Title 24 CFR, Part 3280).
What's included vs. sold separately?
This Full Load configuration includes the Proflame 2 IPI system with multi-function remote (flame, fan, and lighting), an integrated blower, Invisimesh safety screen, reflective black glass liner, halogen downlighting, and battery backup. A WiFi dongle for app control is the one optional extra. Venting, termination, and trim kits are sold separately on every model.
Does buying online affect my warranty?
No — your warranty is fully valid. The Torch Guys is 1 of only 3 authorized Montigo e-commerce dealers in the United States, so Montigo's 15-year firebox warranty applies exactly as it would from a local showroom, and we file claims on your behalf.
