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.

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.

• Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating the heater.

• Do not operate with the glass removed or damaged.

• 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.

• 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).

14 Installation (for qualified installers only)

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.

! 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.

3 Replace the glass (and arch covers when using arched faces - see page 29). 4 Turn on the gas to the fireplace. Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the

appliance. Start the pilot (see page 38). 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.

Standard Screwdriver

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

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

flame (see the illustration below).

• The air shutters adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. They are

used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.

This heater uses three air controls. Adjust

the controls in or out until the flame looks

correct. Pushing in gives the flame less air

(making it more orange). Pulling out gives

the flame more air, making it more blue.

Middle Air Control

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

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

Not Enough Air

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

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

Too Much Air

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

! If the air shutters are fully open position, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the heater and contact

your Travis Industries Dealer for a remedy. ! If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the fireplace 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 fireplace and contact the

dealer for information on remedying the problem. ! This fireplace has been tested at altitudes up to 8,000 feet. In this testing we have found that the fireplace,

with its standard orifice, burns correctly with just an air shutter adjustment. If local codes require resizing the

orifice, in the U.S.A. refer to ANSI 223.1, Appendix P, in Canada B-149.1 or B-149.2

! 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. 7 Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should be approximately 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.

8 Install the faceplate. ! ACID WASH WARNING : Before installing the faceplate, make sure any masonry that has been treated with

acid wash has been properly neutralized (this is used primarily with brick faces). Acid wash (muriatic acid) is

used to remove excess mortar. If not properly neutralized with an ammonia solution, the plated face may

develop a permanent tarnish when the acid evaporates over time. Contact your dealer if uncertain your facing

has been properly neutralized.

Starting the Fireplace for the First Time

+ Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours). This will cure the

painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This is normal. We

recommend opening a window to vent the room. + Dust may accumulate inside the convection area of the heater when left idle. Once the heater is re-started, a

“smoky” smell may be created (similar to a baseboard heater when it is re-started).

+ Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the fireplace - this is normal. + Blue Flames will occur on the fireplace when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn a

more realistic yellow and orange color. ? Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the fireplace on and off. If this is the case, leave the

ON/OFF switch "ON".

following procedures must 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 fireplace by turning the gas control knob to "OFF" (see step A under "Starting the Pilot" on page 38).

Let the fireplace cool for 15 minutes. Remove the faceplate (see instructions included with face) and glass (see page 29). 3 Remove the log set (NOTE: the logs are very fragile - see page 31). 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

fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer. 4 Clean the burner and inspect the following:

• Check the burner for damage.

• Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no damage.

• If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

Check the walls and ceiling of the firebox for

Check the burner holes.

5 Replace the log set. Replace the glass (if the glass is damaged, replace it). Make sure the gasket along the perimeter of

the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If it does not, re-align or replace the gasket to

insure an air-tight seal. Replace the faceplate. 6 Inspect the area behind the access door. Clean if necessary. Check the gas control valve and the gas lines. If any

damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels and ducts. Clean out the

area near the blower (behind the gas control valve). 7 Start the pilot and turn on the main burner. The flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the

pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service. Monitor the blower operation. 8 Inspect the glass. If damage is found, replace the glass (with frame) with Travis Industries glass assembly (glass

installation is on 29). 9 Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer if any sooting or deterioration is found

near the vent termination.

10 Inspect the vent sections. If any damage or dis-connection has occurred, contact your dealer for service.

How this Fireplace Works

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

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

What Turns the Main Burners On and Off

This fireplace 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 fireplace on and

off, this fireplace 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.
