Introduction
Introduction & Important Information................2
* 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 and
cleaned 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.

of the heater was
submerged in water or if any
corrosion occurs.
Immediately call a qualified
service technician to inspect
the appliance and to replace
any part of the control
system and any gas control
Safety Precautions5
•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.
•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
•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.
