Montigo Divine 42-inch Outdoor Propane Fireplace H42VOLE
H42VOLE is an outdoor-only, single-sided gas fireplace with a traditional log burner and Honeywell hot-surface electronic ignition. The exact propane model is rated at 40,000 BTU/hr. Its ventless outdoor design must not be confused with an indoor vent-free appliance: it is not permitted in a home, camper, tent or another enclosed space.

Burner and media configuration
This is the traditional-burner configuration. The manufacturer provides a 7-piece ceramic-fiber log layout for the 42-inch model. Install the specified logs using their locating notches, pins and supports. Preserve the designed positions and keep embers clear of burner ports and air inlets; incorrect placement can cause soot or delayed ignition. The exact burner type, ignition and fuel are determined by this model number; do not substitute a similar-looking sibling product.
Outdoor location and water management
For a covered patio or deck, the manual requires at least two sides to remain open. Choose a location with adequate ventilation and all specified clearances. The manual prohibits recessing the unit into the exterior wall. Plan drainage for the enclosure so water cannot accumulate beneath the appliance. The OD42123 drain pan is an optional model-specific accessory; when it is not used, provide another compliant route for water to escape to the exterior.
Framing, finishing and clearances
Use the exact H42VO diagrams in the manufacturer manual for appliance dimensions, framing and screen projection. The screen projects 2 3/8 inches from the fireplace face. Do not treat screen dimensions, firebox dimensions and framing dimensions as interchangeable. All fireplace facing must be noncombustible, and the lower gas-control panel must remain unobstructed for air supply and service. The clearance table specifies 1 inch at the sides and back, with a separate zero-clearance allowance to the insulation jacket; use the complete diagram to identify the applicable surface. Maintain the specified shelf, mantel, ceiling and sidewall clearances, including the 36-inch ceiling clearance above the fireplace stated in the installation instructions.
Gas, electrical and installation requirements
Provide an accessible approved gas shutoff and have a qualified installer verify supply pressure and leak-test the installation. A fuel change requires the appropriate Montigo conversion kit and a qualified service technician. Protect the electronic-control power connection from weather. The manufacturer requires the RPOVO electrical connection to be in a watertight box or a dry location; outdoor electrical installation must include ground-fault protection as required by local code.
Care and documents
Have the appliance inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified professional. Keep burners, control compartments and air passages clear. Allow the fireplace to cool before cleaning or service, and reinstall protective components after service.
