Montigo Exemplar Single-Sided Direct Vent Fireplace, 85" Viewing Width

The Montigo Exemplar R720L opens with a stat worth noting: 85¼ inches wide and 18⅛ inches tall of unobstructed glass. That is not a window — that is a fireplace, and a genuinely commanding one. Where most linear fireplaces deliver a modest ribbon of flame, this single-sided unit gives you a nearly seven-and-a-half-foot panorama of fire, calibrated for spaces that were designed to be taken seriously.

At 80,000 BTU per hour, the Exemplar isn't decorative by accident. The liquid propane fuel system pairs with a linear burner and glass accessories to produce a flame presentation that reads as architectural rather than incidental — structured, even, and precisely proportioned to the scale of that viewing area. This is the kind of fireplace that becomes the axis around which a room is organized, not an afterthought tucked into an existing wall cavity.

Ignition is handled by a Honeywell Hot Surface Ignition system, which means reliable, repeatable starts without a standing pilot. Hot surface ignition is a proven commercial-grade technology that prioritizes dependability — the fire lights when you want it to, not when the mood strikes it.

Direct vent construction draws combustion air from outside and exhausts through a dedicated 5"/10" coaxial flue, keeping indoor air quality intact and installation flexibility high. Because combustion is entirely sealed from the living space, the Exemplar is well-suited for airtight, energy-conscious construction where a traditional open-combustion appliance would be problematic.

Montigo builds the Exemplar series with the expectation that it will anchor high-end residential and commercial interiors — the kind of environments where the fireplace isn't a feature among many, but the feature. The R720L's combination of a near-continuous glass face, high BTU output, and clean linear burner aesthetic reflects that intent directly.

If your project calls for a liquid propane direct-vent fireplace with genuine visual scale and the heat capacity to back it up, the Exemplar R720L is worth a close look. Compatibility details for surrounds, media, and controls are not included in the current specification sheet — consult your dealer for full configuration options before finalizing installation plans.
