Televisions Placed Above the Fireplace
The following section details three methods to allow for television installation above the fireplace.
Using a Mantel Between the Fireplace and Television
IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING TELEVISIONS AND THIS F IREPLACE
Most television manufacturers ins truct the homeowner to not place the television above a heat source. Doing so may negatively affect the longevity of the television and may negate the warranty. If you do place a televis ion above the fireplace, please be aware of the large amount of heat generated by the fireplace and consider placing the television above a mantel to reduce the amount of heat that reaches t he television. The homeowner must understand that Travis Industries does not take responsibility for any negative im pac t to televisions placed near t his fireplace.
Minimum Dimensions:
(a) Minimum Mantel Height above Base of Fireplace* 39” (991mm) with 4” (102mm) mantel depth (b) Minimum Mantel Depth* 4” (102mm)*
* Mantel depth is 4”(102mm) minimum to allow heat to travel forward and dissipate. If using more than an 4”(102mm) mantel, make sure to make the mantel height (a) higher (see mantel requirements on page 42 for details).
NOTE: The mantel must extend 1”(26mm) in front of the TV and 1”(26mm) to both sides. If you have a TV that is greater than
3”(77mm) deep (including the 1”(26mm) gap behind), you will need to alter the mantel depth and height. WIRING NOTE: If running wiring into the enclosure, use thermal insulating wrap around the wiring. Secure the wiring to
protect from contact with hot surfaces.

Vent Requirements
The gas appliance and vent system must be vented di rectly 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 its own separate vent system.
In addition to the requirements listed here, follow the requirements provided with the vent.
Vent Clearances
The vent must maintain the required clearance to combustible materials to prevent a fire. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
Minimum Vent Configurations (see page 29
NOTE: Make sure to use the included wall thimble with this configuration.
All Other Vent Configurations
)
Vent Firestop or Thimble
A firestop or thimble is required whenever the vent penetrates a wall, floor, or cei l i ng (passes through framing members). See vent charts on page 29 and 31 for details
Altitude Considerations
This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 feet (1800 M). In this testing we hav e 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 t o im proper combustion which can create a safety hazard. Consult your dealer or installer if you suspect an improperly adjusted air shutter.
Approved Vent
Always use the high-wind cap (part # 46DVA-HC, 58DVA-HC, or 46DVA-VCH). The high-wind sconce cap or snorkel are not allowed.
Installation instructions for Simpson Dura-Vent may be found at www.duravent.com. Minimum Vent Configurations (see page 29)
Use 8" diameter Simpson Dura-Vent Model Direct-Vent Pro (or GS)*.
All Other Vent Configurations
Use 8" or 6-5/8” diameter Simpson Dura-Vent Model Direct-Vent Pro (or GS)* (see vent configuration for details).
* Other vent may be approved with this fireplace. Ch eck with the vent manufacturer for details).
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" (6mm) rise every 12" (305mm) of travel.
Horizontal sections require non-combusti bl e support every three feet (e.g.: plumbing strap).

Hearth Requirements
If installed near carpet or other combustible fl ooring, the fireplace must be raised so the base of t he unit is above the carpet surface or flooring material. If t he heat er i s installed at floor level, we recommend a non­combustible hearth to protect the floorin g surface from discoloration or other negative impact from the heater.
A non-combustible hearth may be constructed in front of the fireplace (see illustration below).
© Travis Industries 3/13/18 - 1474 42 & 54PB GSB2 Aust.
Page 37
Installation (for qualified installers only) 37
Facing Requirements
Non-combustible facing must extend from the base of the fireplace to 35-1/2” above the base of the fireplace (see illustration below for details).
Non-combustible facing must extend the entire width of the unit to the framing opening on both sides.
Do not place facing over the glass opening.
Drywall (or other combustible) may be placed above the non-combustible facing (35-1/2” above the base of the
fireplace). See illustration below for details.
WARNING: Do not place drywall or other combustibles over the front of the fireplac e.
WARNING: Do not use adhesive to secure the facing. The high temperatures of the
fireplace may cause adhesives to emit odors. Use m ast i c or thin set (or other non­combustible, non-odorous adherent) to attach t he facing.
NOTE: Screws may be used to secure cement board or ti l e backer to the fireplace. Do not penetrate the fireplace more than 1/2” (13mm).
