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.
Ok
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 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.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids in the vicinity of this heater.
Gas
Travis Industries 93508118 270900
• Do not operate if any portion of the heater was submerged in water or if any corrosion occurs.
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 viewing glass should be opened only for lighting the pilot or conducting service.
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.

• 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.
• Keep all furniture or other combustible items at least 36" away from the front of the fireplace (this includes drapes or doors that may swing within 36" of the front of the fireplace).
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).

Fireplace Placement Requirements
Minimum Framing Dimensions
The 1/2" stand-offs on the back and sides and 6-1/4" stand-offs on the top of the fireplace are
designed to separate the fireplace from the framing members. These stand-offs may contact the
framing members but no material may be placed between the stand-offs.
NOTE: if venting directly to the rear, make sure there is a min. 8-5/8" space centered behind the fireplace for the wall thimble. If a 90° elbow is used directly off of the fireplace, the thimble will be centered 51-1/4" above the base of the fireplace.
If using a remote control or thermostat, route the wire to a location near the gas line (include an extra 3' length for hookup).
46-1/2"
Gas line (3/8" M.P.T. or 1/2" F.P.T.) should be routed 6-5/8" behind the framing opening and 1-7/8" above the base of the fireplace (see "Gas Line Connection" for details).
19-5/8"
43-1/4"
Route the electrical line to a position at the right rear of the fireplace.
NOTE: If using the power heat vent, allow for the duct passage when framing the enclosure.
Fireplace must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the fireplace and vent
Fireplace must be placed directly on wood or non-combustible surface (not on linoleum or carpet)
Due to the high temperature of the fireplace, it should be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies.
This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this appliance
produces when determining a location.
Clearances
When installed, walls in front of the fireplace must be a minimum 4-1/2" to the side of the faceplate.
Fireplace must be placed so that no combustibles are within, or can swing within 36" of the front of the
fireplace (e.g. drapes, doors)
Fireplace must be placed so the vents below and above the glass do not become blocked

Vent Requirements
! The vent must maintain the required clearance to combustible materials to prevent a fire (see
“Clearances” below). 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.
Altitude Considerations
This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 8,000 feet (2,400 M). In this testing we have
found that the heater, with its standard orifice, burns correctly with just an air shutter adjustment. ! 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.
Clearances
Minimum 1” clearance to all combustibles (measured from the outside of the pipe) except for the following:
When using 6-5/8" vent, a horizontal termination, and an elbow directly off the top of the fireplace, a 2" clearance is required above the horizontal sections (1" to the side and below).
2" Clearance
With any vertical vent directly off the fireplace, the clearance is 1".
Max. 3' Horizontal Run
1" Clearance
Use of 8” Diameter Pipe
Most venting configurations use 6-5/8” diameter vent. To achieve longer horizontal runs (over 12’)
with a horizontal termination, 8” dia. Simpson Duravent type GS Direct Vent may be used. See the
section “Horizontal Terminations using 8” Diameter Vent” for details. Part Numbers are listed below.

Apply high-temperature silicone to the inner and outer pipe before assembling the sections (on the male, upper section). This seals the inner pipe from the outer pipe. Slide the sections together and turn 1/4 turn until the sections lock in place. Install three metal screws through each joint to lock the outer section in place (see the instructions included with the vent for further details).
Apply a 1/8" (3 mm) bead of high­temperature silicone to the inner and outer pipe. The silicone must seal the inner pipe from the outer pipe.
