SAFETY NOTICE:

Please read this entire manual before you install and use yournew roomheater. Failure to follow instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, oreven death. Contact local building orfire officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in yourarea.

Always use gloves when operating a hot stove. The door handle and other components become very hot during normal use.

Planning The Installation

We suggest that you have an authorized Travis Industries dealer install your stove. If you install the stove yourself, your authorized dealer should review your installation plans.

Check with local building officials for any permits required for installation of this stove and notify your insurance company before proceeding with installation.

Preparation for Installation

The stove can be lightened by removing the firebricks and baffle (pg 29) - replace before operation.

Check for damage to the exterior of the stove.

Check the interior of the firebox (replace cracked firebrick and make sure baffle is in place).

The door (shipped separately - SKU 96100612 or 96100724) must be installed prior to operation.

The stove must be placed on legs (see page 34) or a pedestal (see page 34).

Stove Installation Considerations

The table below details the six most common types of installations and the considerations for each type. Alternative methods of installation are available if they comply with local building codes.

Installation Type

Considerations

 

 

 

Standard Ceiling with a Factory Built Chimney

Requires ceiling and roof penetration

(Page 15)

Provides best draft

 

 

 

Cathedral Ceiling with a Factory Built Chimney

Cathedral style chimney support required

(Page 15)

Provides best draft

 

 

 

Hearth Stove Positive Connection

Utilizes existing masonry fireplace (not approved for zero

(Page 16)

clearance (metal) fireplaces)

 

Provides good draft due to full reline

 

Easier to clean than direct or horizontal hearth stove

Hearth Stove Direct Connection

Utilizes existing masonry fireplace (not approved for zero

(Page 17)

clearance (metal) fireplaces)

 

Requires construction of a "block-off plate"

 

Draft reduced due to elbows & chimney cross section

Interior Masonry Chimney

Utilizes existing masonry chimney (not approved for zero

(Page 17)

 

clearance (metal) fireplaces)

Stove Installation (for qualified installers only)

Floor Protection Requirements

Stove must be placed on the Travis Industries legs or Pedestal.

Floor protection must extend 6" to the sides and rear of the stove and 16" to the front of the stove (36" wide by 45-1/2" deep - see Figure 2 and Figure 3). NOTE: when installed with reducedclearance connector, the clearance to the backwall is less than 6". In this case the floor protection must extend to the wall.

Floor protection must be non-combustible and at least .018" thick (26 guage).

Stove Placement Requirements

Clearances may be reduced by methods specified in NFPA 211, listed wall shields, pipe shields, or other means approved by local building or fire officials.

Stove must be placed so that no combustibles are within, or can swing within (e.g. drapes, doors), 36" of the front of the stove

If the stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7', it must follow the requirements in the section "Alcove Installation Requirements"

Must maintain the clearances to combustibles listed below (drywall, furniture, etc.):

Clearances

The following clearances must be met (see Figure 2 and Figure 3)

*Reduced clearance installations require one of the chimneys and connectors listed below:

AMERI-TEC model DCC with model HS chimney

DURAVENT model DVL with DURATEC or DURA-PLUS chimney

GSW Super Chimney Twenty-One connected directly to appliance

I.C.C. Excel (2100-2 Can.) (103-HT USA) chimney with HP connector

METALFAB model DW connector with TG chimney

OLIVER MACLEOD PROVENT model PV connector with model 3103 chimney

SECURITY model DP connector with SECURITY model ASHT or S2100 chimney

SELKIRK METALBESTOS model DS connector with model SSII chimney

Standard Masonry Chimney with any one of the above listed connectors

NOTE: Reduced clearance connectors may not connect to the flue collar – an appliance adapter may be required.

NOTE: Mobile Home installations must use the reduced clearance connector and clearances listed above.

NOTE: Standard residential installations with reduced clearance connector may use the

“Connector to Wall” clearance determined by the connector manufacturer if approved by local code. This clearance is established by the connector manufacturer and falls under the connector manufacturer’s listing. “Stove to Wall” clearances must always be met.

Stove Installation (for qualified installers only)

Chimney Connector Requirements

Chimney connector is required from the flue collar of the stove to the factory-built chimney (see Figure 5) or masonry chimney (see Figures 13, 14, and 15).

The chimney connector must be 6” diameter and a minimum 24 gauge black steel, 26 gauge blued steel, or one of the reduced-clearance connectors listed on page 8.

NOTE: Aluminum or galvanized steel is not allowed – these materials can not withstand the flue temperatures and may give off toxic fumes when heated.

NOTE: Standard residential installations may use single-wall connector (Mobile-Homes may not).

The chimney connector may not pass through a ceiling, attic, roof, closet, or any other concealed space (use listed UL 103 HT chimney – see “Chimney Requirements for details). DO NOT USE CONNECTOR PIPE AS CHIMNEY.

The chimney connector should be as short and direct as possible. No more than 180o of elbows (two 90o elbows, or two 45o & one 90o elbow, etc.) may be used for the entire system (connector and chimney).. Horizontal runs should slope upwards 1/4” per foot and be a maximum 36” long.

The chimney connector must be installed with the crimped end pointing downwards (see Figure 4). This prevents creosote from leaking to the exterior of the pipe.

On singlewall pipe

the crimped end

points downward.

Figure 4

The chimney connector must be fastened to the stove and each adjoining section (and chimney).

Chimney Requirements

DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

UL 103 HT Chimney must be used from the first ceiling or floor penetration to the chimney cap.

Use 6" diameter type UL 103 HT chimney from one manufacturer (do not mix brands) or code approved masonry chimney with a flue liner.

Chimney must be fastened to each adjoining section.

Follow the chimney manufacturer's clearances and requirements.

Use the chimney manufacturer's fire stops, attic guards, roof supports, and flashings when passing through a ceiling

No more than 180o of elbows (two 90o elbows, or two 45o & one 90o elbow, etc.) may be used for the entire system (connector and chimney).

NOTE: Additional elbows may be allowed if draft is sufficient. Whenever elbows are used the draft is adversely affected. Additional chimney height may be required to boost draft

Standard residential installations with reduced clearance connector may use the clearance determined by the manufacturer of the connector for the connector to wall clearance or the clearance listed in this manual.

Mobile home installations must use the the reduced clearance connector clearances listed in this manual under “Additional Requirements for Mobile Home Installations”.

Drafting

This appliance relies upon natural draft to operate. External forces, such as wind,

Performance

barometric pressure, topography, or factors of the home (negative pressure from exhaust

 

fans, chimneys, air infiltration, etc.), may adversely affect draft. Travis Industries can not be

 

responsible for external forces leading to less than optimal performance.
