2 Safety Precautions

• IF YOU SMELL GAS:

* Do not light any appliance * Extinguish any open flame * Do not touch any electrical switch or plug or unplug anything * Open windows and vacate building * Call gas supplier from neighbor’s house, if not reached, call fire department

• 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.

Look for this label:

For LPG only | Pout 11” W.C.

If the label is present, the heater is equipped for LP (propane). If the label is absent, the heater is equipped for NG (natural gas).

• 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 propane (LP). Burning the incorrect fuel will void the warranty and safety listing and may cause an extreme safety hazard. Check the label above the gas control valve to make sure it matches the fuel being used. Direct questions about the type of fuel used to your dealer.

• 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.

Travis Industries 93508122 141100

Safety Precautions 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 door (glass) should only be opened while lighting the pilot or conducting service. Damaged glass must be replaced.

• 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.

This Manual

• Do not throw this manual away. This manual has important operating and maintenance instructions that you will need at a later time. Always follow the instructions in this manual.

• Plug the heater into a 120V grounded electrical outlet. Do not remove the grounding plug.

• Don’t route the electrical cord in front of, over, or under the heater

• Travis Industries, Inc. grants no warranty, implied or stated, for the installation or maintenance of your heater, and assumes no responsibility of any consequential damage(s).

Installation (for qualified installers only) 7

Heater Placement Requirements

• Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent

• Due to the high temperature of the heater, it should be located out of traffic and away from

furniture and draperies. Heater must be placed so no combustibles are within, or can swing within 36” of the front of the heater (e.g. drapes, doors)

? When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installation is

considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:

• The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 60” tall

• The alcove must not be more than 48” deep before the ceiling returns to 7’

• The alcove must be at least 48” wide

• The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of heater, or

along the back of the heater can become blocked.

• This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this

appliance produces when determining a location.

Floor Protection Requirements

• When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than

wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on a metal or wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater (Minimum 27-3/8” wide by 20-3/8” deep).

Gas Line Installation

! The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow current ANSI

Z223.1 or NFPA 54 in the USA and the current CGA B149 in Canada.

! The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any

pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA). For pressures under 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA), isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.

Vent Requirements

! Always maintain the required 1” clearance (air space) 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.

• This appliance is equipped only for altitudes 0-2000 feet. However, our in-house testing has shown that the unit operated at altitudes to 8000 ft.

! Failure to adjust the air shutter

properly may lead to improper combustion which can create a safety hazard. Consult your dealer or installer if you suspect an improperly adjusted air shutter.

• When the vent passes through a wall, a wall thimble is required. When the vent passes through a ceiling, a support box or firestop is required. When the vent passes through the roof, a roof flashing and storm collar are required. Follow the instructions provided with the vent (from Duravent®) for installing these items.

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

Use a firestop spacer whenever passing through a ceiling (Duravent Part #963)

! Turn the gas control valve to “OFF” prior to conducting any service. 1 Open the door (see page 16). 2 Install the log set and coals (see page 17). ! We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the door open). This allows gas to be

detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up.

3 Close and secure the door (see page 16). 4 Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the appliance. Start the pilot. Start

the main burner. Leak test all gas joints again. 5 Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration below. Adjust the pilot flame if

necessary.

To adjust the pilot flame, turn this screw (NOTE: if totally unscrewed gas will come out of this port). Clockwise lowers the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.

Installation (for qualified installers only) 15

FINE TUNING THE EMBER-FYRE™ BURNER

Each installation is affected by altitude, vent configuration, and fuel quality. Because of this, the restrictor and air shutter may need to be fine tuned to each installation. Follow the hints below to fine-tune the burner for optimum performance and aesthetics.

Restrictor Hints:

Set the restrictor to the position suggested in the vent configuration table (pages 10-12). Turn the heater on and allow it to reach full temperature (15 min.). If the flames indicate there is excessive draft due to altitude or climate, you may wish to adjust the restrictor to a more restrictive position (higher number). Active, flickering short flames are an indication of excessive draft. If the flames lift off of the burner holes, this indicates not enough draft (restrictor is set too high). After adjustments are made the unit must be cooled down to room temperature and restarted to make sure that the restriction is not so severe that the pilot will drop out when it is restarted. If the pilot does drop out reduce the restriction until it will operate continuously.

Air Shutter Hints:

• For more glow, open the air shutter, however, this will make the flames more blue.

• For yellow flames, close the air shutter, however, this may create less glow.

The flames should burn right off the top of the burner ports (if they are too blue, adjust the air control).

Lifting FlamesCorrect Flames

Burner

Lifting flames indicate insufficient draft (restrictor is set too high).

Burner Ports

(holes)

Ghosting Flames Flickering Flames

Ghosting flames indicate insufficient air (restrictor set too high, air shutter shut down, or other venting error).

Flickering, short flames indicate excessive draft (move air shutter to a higher position).

Warning: If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the heater to lift or

“ghost” – a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after installation to insure proper performance. If the vent configuration is correct, yet the flames are lifting or ghosting, shut off gas to the heater and contact the dealer for information on remedying the problem.

7 Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should be a maximum 10” to 12” tall.

Check the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of each burner hole. If the heater does

not work correctly, contact your dealer for a remedy.

Starting The Pilot Flame

Operation 21

The pilot flame is required to ignite the main burners (it also plays a safety role). It should be left on once lit. It will stay lit unless the gas control valve is turned to "OFF". However, the pilot will go out if the gas is shut off, the propane tank runs out (or low) or if the stove malfunctions. If the pilot turns off frequently, call your dealer for information. To start the pilot follow the directions below:

WARNING :

When lighting or re-lighting the

pilot, the door must be opened (see

page 16). a Open the door (see page 16 for details). b Push the gas control knob in slightly and turn

it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not

turn from "ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is

depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let

any gas that may have accumulated inside

the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas,

follow the directions on the cover "IF YOU

SMELL GAS". c Turn the gas control knob to the "PILOT"

position and press the knob in, this will allow

How this Heater Works

Warning This heater was designed with safety as the primary concern. Many of the components

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

What Turns the Main Burners On and Off

This heater 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 heater on and off, this heater 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. The ON/OFF switch, remote control, or thermostat control the circuit to the main burner.

MAIN BURNER

OFF

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 or burner 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 damaged 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.

Ceramic Glass

The glass in your heater is the most durable glass available. It has been tested to be extremely resistant to breakage from temperature changes.
