4 Safety Precautions
Safety Warnings:
Failure to follow all of the requirements may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.
This unit must be installed by a qualified installer to prevent the possibility of an explosion.
This appliance must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, in U.S.A. follow ANSI
Z223.1 and NFPA 54(88).
In Manufactured or Mobile Homes must confirm with: In USA, Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280. This appliance may be installed in Manufactured Housing only after the home is site located.
All exhaust gases must be vented outside the structure of the living-area. Combustion air is drawn from outside the living-area structure.
Notify your insurance company before hooking up this fireplace.
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.
This heater is approved for use with natural gas (NG) or 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 or installer.
Contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or inspection requirements in your area.
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.
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 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.
Do not operate if any portion of the heater was submerged in water or if any corrosion occurs.
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.
Light the heater using the built-in igniter. Do not use matches or any other external device to light your heater.
Before removing the glass on a fireplace that is connected to a gas line, remove the batteries from the battery box. This disables the fireplace and prevents it from turning on with the glass removed, a potential safety risk.
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.
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.

Safety Precautions 5
Safety Warnings (continued):
Allow the heater to cool before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning.
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.
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 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.
Do not touch the hot surfaces of the heater. Educate all children of the danger of a high-temperature heater. Young children should be supervised when they are in the same room as the heater.
Due to the high temperature, the heater should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
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.
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).

3. Determine a location for the single-gang junction box that contains the battery pack and wireless wall switch. It must be located within 12’ of the DCMD and battery pack wires that lead to the gas control valve and receiver module on the fireplace (see Figure 11). Mount the junction box.
4. Insert the DCMD and battery pack wires through the junction box, leaving approximately 8” of slack so the battery pack may be removed and the batteries replaced. Use a staple or other means to secure the wiring to the framing – this prevents the wires from slipping out of the junction box in the event the wires become disconnected from the battery pack (see Figure 11). NOTE: The wiring is low-voltage (6V) and does not require a strain relief. Connect the DCMD and battery pack wires to the battery pack (see Figure 13).

Vent Requirements
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.
In addition to the requirements listed here, follow the requirements provided with the vent.
A firestop is required whenever the vent penetrates a floor or ceiling (or passes through
horizontal framing members). A thimble is required whenever the vent passes through a wall (or horizontal framing members).
Approved Vent
This fireplace may only use the following vent components (8-5/8” / 6” external diameter co-
axial vent). These parts are available from Travis Dealers.

Altitude Considerations
This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 feet. 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.

Vent Installation
Slide the vent sections together and turn 1/4 turn until the sections lock
in place.
Screws are not required to secure the vent. However, three screws may
be used to secure vent sections together if desired.
High temperature sealant is recommended at the appliance starter
section connection (use high-temperature silicone or Mill-Pac®).
If disassembly is required, at time of re-assembly check to see if the vent
creates a tight fit. If it does not, apply high temperature sealant to the joints of the affected sections.
Horizontal sections require a 1/4" rise every 12" of travel
Horizontal sections require non-combustible support every three feet (e.g.: plumbing tape)

7. Check the air shutter following the directions below.
Air Shutter Adjustment
Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes (make sure the logs and glass are in place). The flames should be yellow with no sooting. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct looking flame.
Correct
Flames should be blue at the base, yellow-orange on the top.
If the flames are too tall or sooty on the ends, open the air shutter.
Not Enough Air
Too Much Air
If the flames are all blue and short, close the air shutter.
How to Adjust the Air Shutters
Both the front and rear burner air shutters are accessed by removing a cover plate (see the illustration below). After adjusting the air shutter, replace the burner, logs, and glass and verify the flame quality.

Ember Placement
Place the embers along the firebox floor and burner to help conceal the burner. Make sure none of the embers are directly over the burner holes. See the photo below (the logs were removed to better show ember placement).
NOTE: The embers may be placed over the air slots near the burner, but do not place too much as to impede proper airflow.
Note how the embers do not cover any burner holes. Place the embers around the burner to create a realistic effect.
Rock Wool Placement
This fireplace is shipped with a larger amount of rock wool to provide the proper coverage needed on this large burner. The rock wool must be pulled apart and made into a thin gauze prior to placing over the burner. See the illustration below for details.
NOTE: Propane (LP) units use a lighter amount of rock wool than natural gas units.
Preparing the Rock Wool:
The rock wool comes in one clump. Tear off “dime” sized clumps and flatten. Then pull on the wool to create gauze-like pieces. The wool glows best when very thin and porous.
Place small pieces of rock wool next to the burner holes in visible locations. Place the rock wool sparingly so it does not cover large areas of the burner.
WARNING: If the rock wool is too thick or placed so it obstructs the flow of gas, sooting will occur.
