4 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).

• This heater is either approved for natural gas (NG) or for propane (LP or LPG). 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 for the label shown to the right.

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.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids in the vicinity of this heater.

• 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.

• Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

Travis Industries 100-01169_001 4050119

Safety Precautions 5

• 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 only for lighting the pilot or conducting service. Do not operate with cracked, broken, or removed glass.

• 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.

• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. 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).

AAA

Installation Hints:

• If converting to LP, convert the appliance prior to installation.

• The blower is easiest to install prior to installation. Because the blower is located near the gas inlet

location, the gas inlet must be routing around the blower position.

• Install the logs last - they are fragile.

• When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations) and

ceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure

the vent does not intersect with a framing member.

• Fumes and smoke from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur the first time you start

this heater. This is normal. We recommend you open windows to vent the room.

Stove Clearances

Heater Placement Requirements

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

• Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture

and draperies.

• 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 58” tall

• The alcove must not be more than 45” deep before the ceiling returns to 7’

• The alcove must be at least 46-3/4” 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 26-3/4” wide by 19” deep).

Make sure these rubber tipped bolts on each leg contact the floor (they dampen any noise that may

transmit through the hearth). Do not adjust with weight on the legs, the rubber tips may tear.

Vent Requirements

• The vent must maintain the required 1" clearance to combustible materials to prevent a fire. 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.

• 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 for installing these items.

NOTE: Wall thimbles may have

different dimensions than what is required by this heater.

• 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.

Vertical Termination always use the "high-wind" version (if applicable)

Use a roof flashing and storm collar whenever passing through the roof

22 Finalizing the Installation (for qualified installers only)

Finalizing the Installation

! Make sure the gas control valve is “OFF” and the heater is cool prior to conducting service.

1 Remove the face and glass (see page 24)

! We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the glass removed). This allows gas to be

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

2 Install the log set and coals (see page 26).

3 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.

4 Inspect the pilot flame (see the illustration below). Adjust the pilot flame if necessary.

Pilot Flame Adjustment

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.

Standard Screwdriver

5 Replace and secure the glass and face (see page 24)

The pilot flame must contact the thermocouple and thermopile (see the illustration below). Adjust the pilot up or down as necessary.

Finalizing the Installation (for qualified installers only) 23

6 Let the heater burn for thirty minutes. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct

looking flame (see the illustration below).

• The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. It is used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.

Air Shutter Adjustment

ADJUSTING THE AIR SHUTTER

Pushing to the left gives the flame less air (making it more orange). Pushing to the right gives the flame more air, making it more blue. For fine adjustments use a screwdriver to tap the air shutter.

NOTE: If the air shutter is all the way open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the fireplace and contact a qualified gas service technician.

Correct

Flames should be blue at the base, yellow-orange on the top.

Gas Control Valve

NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.

Not Enough Air

If the flames are over 14" tall or sooty on the ends, open the air shutter.

Air Shutter Control

Too Much Air

If the flames are all blue and short, close the air shutter.

! 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.

! Failure to properly adjust the air shutter may lead to improper combustion and a safety hazard. Consult

your dealer or installer if you suspect an improperly adjusted air shutter.

Burner Ports

Burner Pan

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

If the flames are lifting, yet the vent configuration is correct, contact your dealer.

(holes)

If the flames are ghosting, yet the vent configuration is correct, contact your dealer.

7 Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should be a maximum 9” to 10” 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 29

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 glass must be removed (see page

24).

a Remove the glass (see page 24 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 gas to flow to the pilot light. Press the button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until you see the pilot light.

WARNING: If the pilot does not light after 15

seconds, release the knob and call your dealer for service. Do not attempt to light pilot until service has been performed.

Maintaining Your Stove's Appearance

WARNING : Make sure the appliance has fully cooled prior to cleaning. Painted Surfaces

• Painted surfaces should be cleaned with a duster. If scratches occur, lightly sand the area with fine sandpaper. Clean the area and, with the stove cool, apply one or two thin coats of stove paint to the area (mask the area to avoid overspray). Allow the stove to dry, then turn the stove on to cure the paint (1 hour on medium).

Enamel Surfaces

• Use only soft cloth and water to clean enamel surfaces. To fix chips in the enamel, follow the directions below:

1) Let the stove cool. Clean the area thoroughly.

2) Shake the Travis Enamel Touch-Up thoroughly. Apply to the damaged area.

Glass

• Clean the glass with soap and water (do not use abrasives). To remove the glass, follow the instructions on page 24.

Yearly Service Procedure

• Failure to inspect and maintain the heater 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 touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the thermopile and touch the top of the

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

2 Shut off gas to the heater by turning the gas control knob to "OFF" (see step A under "Starting the Pilot" on page

29). Let the heater cool for 15 minutes. Remove the glass (see page 24).

3 Remove the log set (NOTE: the logs are very fragile - see page 26). If severely deteriorated, replace.

Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting is found, the heater will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.

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

• Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged.

• 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.

34 Maintenance (for qualified service personnel only)

How this Stove Works

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

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

What Turns the Main Burners On and Off

This stove 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 stove on and off, this stove 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 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.
