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, or, when such a standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations, ANSI/NCSBCS A225.1. 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. Check the label and flame adjust knob on the gas control valve.
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 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.
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.
The pilot flame must contact the thermopile and thermocouple. 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 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).

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 wall, floor, or ceiling (passes through
framing members). Horizontal vent less than 48" above the fireplace must use the Travis Firestop (sku 93006094 - it incorporates a 3" clearance above, 1" clearance below and to the sides of the vent). Other penetrations only require a 1" clearance and may use a standard firestop (make sure the required 1" clearance is met).
Always use the high-wind termination (if available from the vent manufacturer).
Vent Clearances
The vent must maintain the required clearance to combustible materials to prevent a fire. Do
not fill air spaces with insulation.

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.

Approved Vent
Rear vent configurations use 8" diameter Simpson Dura-Vent Model GS vent.
Top vent configurations use 8" or 6-5/8" diameter Simpson Dura-Vent Model GS vent. If using
6-5/8" diameter vent, attach the 8" to 6-5/8" reducer (Travis part # 98900165) to the fireplace.
6-5/8" Diameter Vent
Reducer - # 98900165
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)

Approved Vent Configurations
Restrictor Position
Intake and exhaust restrictors are built into the appliance to adjust the flow rate of intake air and
exhaust gases. Depending upon the vent configuration, you may be required to adjust the restrictor positions. The charts for acceptable vent configurations detail the correct vent restrictor positions.
Exhaust Restrictor Adjustment
If the diffuser is required to be in position # 2, you may wish to adjust the diffuser while the exhaust
restrictor is removed.

Finalizing the Installation (for qualified installers only) 43
Steps for Finalizing the Installation
1. Remove the glass (see page 45).
NOTE: If using propane (LP) convert the appliance prior to installing the logs.
2. 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. Install the logs (see page 47).
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.
Starting the Pilot Flame
WARNING: When lighting or re-lighting the pilot, the glass must be removed (see page 43). a Remove the glass.
b Push the gas control knob in slightly and turn it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not turn
from "ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let any gas that may have accumulated inside the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas, follow the directions on the cover "IF YOU SMELL GAS".
c Turn the gas control knob to the "PILOT" position and press the knob in, this will allow gas to
flow to the pilot light. Press the button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until you see the pilot light.
WARNING: If the pilot does not light after 15 seconds, release the knob and call your dealer
for service. Do not attempt to light pilot until service has been performed.
NOTE:
You may wish to remove the log set to gain a better view of the pilot (see page 47). d Keep the gas control knob depressed for 30 seconds once it is lit. e Release the gas control knob. If the pilot goes out, repeat step C. If the pilot refuses to stay lit,
call your dealer for service. With the pilot lit, proceed to step “f”.
f Replace the glass. g Turn the gas control knob counter-clockwise to "ON". The pilot is now lit and the heater can be
turned on and off.
5. Check the pilot flame following the directions below.

8. 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 over 14" 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.
Air Shutter Adjustment
The air shutters may be adjusted while the burner is on (take care to prevent contacting the burner area).
There are two air shutters on this fireplace - adjust both air shutters to obtain the correct flame.
Rear Air
Shutter Control
LESS
AIR
Move the controls left or right until the flame looks correct. The rear air shutter affects the rear portion of the burner, the front air shutter the front portion of the burner. Pushing to the left gives the flame more air, making it more blue. Pushing to the right gives the flame less air, making it more orange.
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.

AIR
NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.
9. Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should not contact the top of the firebox. Check the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of each burner hole. If the heater does not work correctly, contact your Travis dealer for a remedy.
10. Give this manual to the home owner for future reference and fully explain operation of this heater. For comprehensive operating and maintenance instructions, refer to the Owner's Manual (part # 100-01181).
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.
