2Safety 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 Industries93508118270900
• Do not operate if any portion
of the heater was
submerged in water or if any
corrosion occurs.
Safety Precautions3
•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,

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

Facing Requirements
NOTE: The combustible area above the facing must not protrude more than 3/4" from the facing. If it
does, it is considered a mantel and must meet the mantel requirements listed in this manual.
The fireplace requires a concrete board (or
other non-combustible) extending from the
header to the floor and to the framing
members on both sides. Do not use
sheetrock, plywood or other combustible.

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
