Venting Configurations

Paragon (DVCT-Series) uses a direct-vent sealed combustion system with 5″/8″ vent pipe. Venting can terminate through the roof or an exterior wall. Vent configurations must follow the side-wall venting graph relating vertical-to-horizontal run lengths.

SpecAll Models
Pipe Size5″ / 8″
Vent TypeDirect vent (DVP-series components)
Clearance to Combustibles3″ top / 1″ bottom and sides of vent pipe
TerminationRoof or wall mount (vertical or horizontal sidewall)
Vent Run LimitsPer side-wall venting graph in installation manual (relationship of vertical run to horizontal run)

Empire/Montigo Paragon uses a Direct Vent System component set (DVP40PS, etc.). A liner kit and log set are required for the TruFlame system. Always reference the venting graph in the installation manual to confirm your planned configuration is within allowed limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I convert from natural gas to propane?

Yes, with a propane conversion kit. Every Montigo gas model is made for natural gas; select propane as your fuel type on our website and the conversion kit is automatically added to your order.

What venting do I need?

These models use direct-vent sealed combustion piping. Both vertical (through-roof) and horizontal (through-wall) terminations are supported. Refer to the installation manual for exact pipe size, max run length, and clearance requirements per model.

What is TruFlame Technology?

TruFlame is Montigo's premium burner system designed to produce the most realistic traditional flame in their lineup — independent rear burner that turns down to 70% for embers-only flame effect, 6-step variable height, and traditional logsets with realistic ember beds. If you want the look of a wood-burning fireplace with the convenience of gas, Paragon is the platform.
