¥ This unit must be installed by a qualified installer to prevent the possibility of

an explosion. Your dealer will know the requirements in your area and can inform you of those people considered qualified. The room heater should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.

¥ The instructions in this manual must be strictly adhered to. Do not use

makeshift methods or compromise in the installation. Improper installation will void the warranty and safety listing.

CONVERTED FOR

NATURAL GAS

THIS CONTROL

HAS BEEN

CONVERTED TO

¥ Contact your local

building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or inspection requirements in your area. Notify your insurance company of this heater as well.

¥ It is imperative that

control compartments, screens, or circulating air passageways of the heater be kept clean and free of obstructions. These areas provide the air necessary for safe operation.

¥ This heater is either approved for natural gas (NG)

or for propane (LP). Burning the incorrect fuel will void the warranty and safety listing and may cause an extreme safety hazard. Direct questions about the type of fuel used to your dealer. Check the label and flame adjust knob on the gas control valve.

¥ If the flame becomes

sooty, dark orange in color, or extremely tall, do not operate the heater. Call your dealer and arrange for proper servicing.

¥ Do not operate the heater

if it is not operating properly in any fashion or if you are uncertain. Call your dealer for a full

explanation of your heater and what to expect.

Gas

¥ Do not store or use

gasoline or other flammable liquids in the vicinity of this heater.

¥ Keep all furniture or other

combustible items at least 36" away from the front of the heater.

¥ Do not operate if any

portion of the heater was submerged in water or if any corrosion occurs.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (CONTINUED) PAGE 3

¥ Do not place clothing or

other flammable items on or near the heater. Because this heater can be controlled by a thermostat there is a possibility of the heater turning on and igniting any items placed on or near it.

¥ The viewing glass should

be opened for service only (see the maintenance section of this manual).

¥ Any safety screen or

guard removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating the heater.

¥ Operate the heater

according to the instructions included in this manual.

¥ If the main burners do not

start correctly turn the gas off at the gas control valve and call your dealer for service.

¥ Light the heater using the

built-in piezo igniter. Do not use matches or any other external device to light your heater.

¥ Never remove, replace,

modify or substitute any part of the heater unless instructions are given in this manual. All other work must be done by a trained technician. Don't modify or replace orifices.

¥ Allow the heater to cool

before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning.

¥ The pilot flame must

contact the thermopile and thermocouple (see the illustration to the left). If it does not, turn the gas control valve to "OFF" and call your dealer.

¥ This unit is not for use

with solid fuel

¥ Do not place anything

inside the firebox (except the included fiber logs).

¥ If the fiber logs become

damaged, replace with Travis Industries log set.

¥ Do not touch the hot

surfaces of the heater. Educate all children of the danger of a hightemperature heater. Young children should be supervised when they are in the same room as the heater.

¥ Instruct everyone in the

house how to shut gas off to the appliance and at the gas main shutoff valve. The gas main shutoff valve is usually next to the gas meter or propane tank and requires a wrench to shut off.

Vent Requirements

! Always maintain the required 1" clearance (2" clearance above the vent when an elbow is placed

directly off the top of the fireplace) to combustible materials to prevent a fire hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.

! The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never

be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system.

! If the fireplace is

installed at an altitude over 3,000 feet the flame quality will need to be carefully evaluated. See Addendum #1, "Altitude Considerations", on page

45.

¥ In addition to the

requirements listed to the right, follow the requirements provided with the vent.

Vertical Termination (Duravent Part # 991)

Use a roof flashing and storm collar whenever passing through the roof (Duravent Part #953 & #943 or #943S)

Approved Vent Configurations

Restrictor Position

¥ A vent restrictor is built into the appliance to adjust the flow rate of exhaust gases. This ensures

proper combustion for all vent configurations. Depending upon the vent configuration, you may be required to adjust the restrictor position. The charts for acceptable vent configurations describe which position the vent restrictor must be in.

To Access the Restrictor:

Withe the fireplace cool, use the bent rod included in the ownerÕs pack to adjust the plate.

To Adjust the Restrictor:

Determine the correct restrictor position (see the charts under

"Approved Vent Configurations" - the stock position is #1). Lift up the adjustment plate and move it so the correct notch falls into

the slot on the adjustment bracket.

NOTE: The fireplace is shipped with the restrictor in position #1 (fully open).

This restrictor is in position 1.

lbows

¥ A maximum of

two 90¡ elbows may be used. NOTE: do not use a 90¡ elbow between two horizontal sections. NOTE: one additional 45¡ elbow may be used between two horizontal sections.

- or ¥ Two 45¡ elbows

may be used between vertical sections.

Cleaning Gold Surfaces

Fingerprints or other marks left on gold surfaces may become etched in place if they are not wiped clean prior to turning the stove on. With the heater cool, clean gold surfaces with denatured alcohol and a soft cloth.

Fumes from the Painted Surfaces Curing

Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours). This will cure the painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room.

Condensation

Water may appear on the glass each time you start the heater - this is normal.

Blue Flames

Blue flames will occur on the fireplace when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn a more realistic yellow and orange color.

? Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the fireplace on and off. If this is the case,

leave the ON/OFF switch "ON".

Turning the Fireplace On and Off

After the pilot has been started...

For systems with thermostats, use this switch to control the temperature (right is hotter, left cooler). Some systems require the on/off switch to be on.

Use this switch to turn the main burner on and off manually.

See the instructions included with the remote for changing the battery.

See the instructions included with the remote for details on operation.

! Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the fireplace, even temporarily.

The optional thermostat may start the fireplace causing a combustible item to ignite.

? If the fireplace turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust the

flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.

PAGE 32 MAINTENANCE

Maintaining Your Fireplace's Appearance

! Fingerprints or other marks left on the optional gold surface may become etched in place if they are

not wiped clean prior to turning the stove on. Clean the gold with denatured alcohol and a soft cloth.

¥ Use denatured alcohol and a soft cloth to clean gold surfaces (make sure the fireplace is cool). Other

cleaners may leave a film that may become etched into the gold.

Yearly Service Procedure

! Failure to inspect and maintain the fireplace may lead to improper combustion and a potentially

dangerous situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician.

1 Check the pilot flame. It should engulf approximately 3/8" of the top of the thermopile and engulf

the top of the thermocouple (see illustration below). If it does not, contact your dealer for service.

2 Shut off gas to the fireplace by turning the gas control knob to "OFF" (see step A under "Starting the

Pilot" on page 29). Let the fireplace cool for 15 minutes. Remove the faceplate (see instructions included with face) and glass (see page 24).

3 Remove the log set (NOTE: the logs are very fragile - see page 25). If any log is cracked or

deteriorated, replace it when re-installing. Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting is found, the fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer or a qualified technician for service.

4 Clean the burner pan (especially in the burner holes and slots) and inspect the following:

¥ Check for burner pan holes that are cracked, severely warped, or corroded. ¥ Make sure the burner pan assembly fits flat against the floor of the firebox. ¥ Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.

If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

Before Disassembly: Check the pilot flame. It should impinge the top 3/8Ó of the thermopile and engulf the thermocouple.

Thermopile

Pilot Hood

5 Replace the log set. Replace the glass (if the glass is damaged, replace it). Make sure the gasket

along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If it does not, re-align or replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal. Replace the faceplate.

6 Inspect the area behind the access door. Check the gas control valve and all of the gas lines. If any

damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

7 Start the pilot and turn on the main burner. The flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the

top of the firebox. If the pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service. Monitor the blower operation.

8 Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer if any sooting or

deterioration is found near the vent termination.

How this Fireplace Works

! This fireplace was designed with safety as the primary concern. Many of the components inside this

fireplace are for safety purposes. Therefore, only certified gas service technicians should service this fireplace.

What Turns the Main Burners On and Off

This fireplace uses a millivolt system to control its operation (a millivolt is a very small amount of electricity). The thermopile and thermocouple generate electricity when heated by the pilot flame. This electricity is used to operate the gas valve. Without enough electricity, the gas valve will not turn on. That is why when starting the pilot the gas control knob has to be pressed in long enough for the thermocouple to heat up and generate enough electricity. The thermopile provides power for the ON/OFF switch, remote control, or thermostat (see the illustration below). Because the thermopile generates the electricity needed to turn the fireplace on and off, this fireplace can be operated when the power is out (although the blower will not run).

When heated, the thermopile generates electricity (a very small amount, measured in "Millivolts").

This electricity is used to operate the main burners.

The main burners are switched on and off using the electricity generated by the thermopile.

VENT

PILOT ADJ

The ON/OFF switch, remote control, or thermostat control the circuit to the main burner.

MAIN BURNER

What Prevents Gas Buildup

+ This appliance utilizes a high-technology gas valve in conjunction with a pilot flame to ensure no

gas builds up inside the firebox.

+ The thermocouple (next to the pilot) senses when the pilot flame is lit. If the pilot flame goes out,

this thermocouple no longer generates electricity, causing the gas valve to automatically shut off all gas to the heater, preventing the pilot from spilling gas into the firebox.

Pilot Flame

The pilot flame is a time-proven component that eliminates the possibility of gas buildup inside the firebox.

Gas Valve

This high-technology valve automatically shuts off all gas if it does not receive a signal from the thermocouple. If any component is damged or sensing a malfunction, or if the wiring is damaged, it will shut off all gas.

External Shut Off Valve

This valve is placed on the gas line to shut off gas to the appliance during maintenance procedures.

Thermocouple

The thermocouple generates a small amount of electricity. If the pilot flame goes out, the gas valve automatically shuts off all gas.

Thermostat

(Part # 99300650)

! Do not connect 120 VAC to the gas control valve or wiring of this unit. + It is easiest to route the wire prior to installing the fireplace. Route the wire to a location near the gas

inlet. Allow 3' of wire for hookup inside the fireplace.

1 Follow the directions below to attach the wire to the on/off switch (NOTE: this is best done at the

same time the electrical line is hooked up - see page 23 for details on installing the electrical line).

Inner Wall of Z.C. Can.

Insert approximately 1' (305 mm) of wire through the inner wall to allow for hookup.

Run the wire through the strain relief next to the electrical line. Then thread the wire through the square opening (this leads to the area below the burner pan).

Back of on/off switch

Remove the green jumper wire.

Attach the quick connects from the wire to the two posts on the on/off switch.

2 Determine a location for the thermostat that is within range of the 50' length of thermostat wire. It

should be centralized in the room and away from the heater. The wire may be routed externally on the wall or behind the wall (preferred).

IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL NOTE FOR REMOTE THERMOSTAT USE:

Included with the remote thermostat is a set of instructions that should be given to the homeowner. Please be aware that the remote thermostat has a 1 to 2 minute lag time between the time the thermostat is turned up and the heater turns on.

Decorative Fireback (part # 98500732)

The decorative classic fireback attaches to the side walls of the firebox to enhance the aesthetic quality of the appliance. The directions below detail installation.

! Turn the gas control valve to "OFF" prior to conducting any service.

1 The faceplate, glass, and log set must be removed prior to installing the firebacks.

2 Use a 5/16" socket wrench or standard screwdriver to remove the four screws on each side of

the firebox wall (see the illustration below).

3 Attach the fireback clips to the side walls using 1/2" screws included with this kit.

4 Place the firebacks onto the fireback clips. The side plates are marked "Left" and "Right" on

the back to differentiate the two sides. Insert the 1" screws included with this kit through the plates and into the walls of the firebox to secure the plates in place. Do not fully tighten the screws - the firebacks should have some space to expand and contract.

Altitude Considerations

This fireplace has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 8,000 feet. In this testing we have found that the fireplace, with its standard orifice, burns correctly with just an air shutter adjustment. For information on adjusting the air shutter see page 27 of this manual.

! Failure to adjust the air shutter properly may lead to improper combustion which can create a

safety hazard. Please consult your dealer or installer if you suspect an improperly adjusted air shutter.
