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.
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 propane (LP).
Burning the incorrect fuel will void the
warranty and safety listing and may
cause an extreme safety hazard.
Check the label above the gas control
valve to make sure it matches the fuel
being used. Direct questions about
the type of fuel used to your dealer.
• 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.
Gas
• Do not store or use gasoline
or other flammable liquids in
the vicinity of this heater.
• Keep all furniture or other
combustible items at least
36” away from the front of
the heater.
• Do not operate if any portion
of the heater was
submerged in water or if any
corrosion occurs.
Travis Industries 100-01135 4040809
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 door (glass) should only
be opened while lighting the
pilot or conducting service.
Damaged glass must be
replaced.
• 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.

8 Installation (for qualified installers only)
Heater Placement Requirements
• Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent
• Due to the high temperature, the heater should be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies.
? When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installation is
considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:
• The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 60” tall
• The alcove must not be more than 48” deep before the ceiling returns to 7’
• The alcove must be at least 47-3/8” wide
• The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of heater, or
along the back of the heater can become blocked.
• This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this
appliance produces when determining a location.
Floor Protection Requirements
• When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than
wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on a metal or
wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater (Minimum 27-3/8” wide by
20-3/8” deep).

Vent Requirements
! Always maintain the required 1” clearance (air space) to combustible materials to prevent a fire hazard.
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.
• This appliance is equipped only for
altitudes 0-2000 feet. However, our
in-house testing has shown that the
unit operated at altitudes to 8000 ft.
! 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.
• When the vent passes through a wall,
a wall thimble is required. When the
vent passes through a ceiling, a
support box or firestop is required.
When the vent passes through the
roof, a roof flashing and storm collar
are required. Follow the instructions
provided with the vent (from
Duravent®) for installing these items.
