Tranquility Burner Installation
If converting to propane see conversion instructions on page 13 before proceeding with
Tranquility Burner Kit.
1. Plug the 4 vacant holes in the bottom of the rebox with 1/2” screws, as they are not required to
attach this style of burner (Figure 2).
Figure 2: 4 holes in replace oor to be plugged.
2. Remove the 10 screws securing the access cover for the valve control center (Figure 3).
3. Bend the larger gas ex line, the smaller gas pilot ex line and the ignition and sensor wires into
shape (Figure 4) so that the right hand side cover will t over top of them before the burner is
placed into the rebox (Figure 6).

4. Place side covers between the burner tray and its base (Figure 5 and Figure 6) before the burner
tray is inserted into the rebox. These will remain in the retracted position until later in the instal-
lation process.
5. Position lower rear panel centered at the rear of the rebox. Place burner assembly into the re-
box against the rear panel (Figure 7).

6. Attach the main gas supply line and the pilot gas supply line to the bulk head ttings and tighten
(Figure 8). Ensure that there are no leaks.
7. Feed the ignition and sensor wires through the bulkhead plate and gasket to the rebox
(Figure 9).

9. Once the gas and electrical lines are connected to the bulkhead and the interface module, rein-
stall the valve control center’s access cover (Figure 3 on page 3). The panels are now ready
to be installed.

10.Remove the two screws (Figure 11) which secure the panel retainer to the ceiling. Remove the
panel retainer and keep for reinstallation (Figure 12).
11.Attach a panel clip on each of the side panels (Figure 13). These clips will t over the upper rear
panel, holding it in place.

12.Remove tag and plastic tie from the ue damper before installing the upper rear panel.
13.Install one of the side panels until it’s nearly up against the rebox wall. Leave enough room
between the panel and wall so that the upper rear panel can be slipped in behind the side panel.
14.Install the upper rear panel (Figure 15). Place one end on top of the lower rear panel and slip the
side of the upper rear panel in behind the side panel. Hold the upper rear panel up against the
rear rebox wall until the retaining clip can be positioned over the top of the upper rear panel.

15.Install the other side panel (Figure 16) and bend its retaining clip over the upper rear panel as in
the previous step.
16.Reinsert the two screws previously removed from the panel retainer but do not tighten. Reinstall
the panel retainer and t slots to hook onto the two screws. Tighten screws (Figure 17).

17.Move the two side covers previously placed between the burner and its base, out to the side
panels. Line the screw holes in the side covers up with the screw holes in the burner tray base.
Use supplied self taping screws to secure the covers to the base (Figure 18).
18.Insert tapered plugs into raised burner ports to prevent sand from entering ports (Figure 19).
19.Place sand in tray. Use supplied brush to spread and level the sand to just below the top of
raised burner ports. Gently blow excess sand from around ports (Figure 20).

20.Remove tapered plugs from ports.
21.Remove pebble assembly from packaging by placing hand on top and tipping upside down.
Note that the rock in the lower left is hollow underneath and will t over top of the pilot assembly
(Figure 21).
22.Gently place pebble assembly onto sand base aligning 3 holes in the bottom of the rock set to
the 3 pins located on the burner tray (Figure 22).

WARNING
This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualified service agency in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and all applicable codes and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction.
If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of
carbon monoxide may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
The qualified service agency is responsible for the proper installation of this kit. The installation
is not proper and complete until the operation of the converted appliance is checked as speci-
fied in the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the kit.
CAUTION
The gas supply and electrical power shall be shut off before proceeding with the conversion.
Note: Factory supplied components must be used to ensure correct input. After conversion
confirm proper manifold pressure.
If the unit is to be used on propane convert as follows using the components supplied with
this burner:
Propane Conversion
1. Remove rock set and sand if present.
2. Remove right hand side panel if present.
3. Remove all 10 screws from the Valve control center panel (Figure 25).

gas supply line from the bulkhead.
5. Disconnect the ame sensor wire and the ignition wire from the interface module (Figure 27) and
withdraw the wires back through the bulkhead plate and into the rebox area.

6. Remove the 2 front and 1 rear screws holding the burner tray in place (Figure 28).
7. Gently lift up the burner tray from its supports while sliding it to the left to disengage the burner
tube from the orice. Lift the tray, turn it on its side and lay it on its edge to expose the orice and
the pilot assembly (Figure 29). Remove the pilot assembly bracket with its wires and pilot gas line
attached while the burner kit is on its side (See “Figure 33” on page 16).
8. Using a 1/2” wrench, undo the natural gas burner orice (Figure 29) and replace with the pro-
pane gas orice that comes with the conversion kit (Figure 30). Apply a small amount of pipe joint
compound to the threads of the propane burner orice to ensure a good seal, before screwing it
into the tting.

9. Loosen the primary air shutter screw (Figure 31), open shutter half way and re-tighten (Figure 32).
10.Remove the 2 screws holding the pilot assembly in place with a short screwdriver (Figure 33).
11.With a 7/16” wrench, loosen the pilot head on the pilot assembly using a wrench to hold the
bracket steady (Figure 34).

For complete valve installation instructions, refer to the
instruction book included in the SIT conversion kit.
12.Slide the pilot adjustment band over and ensure that the hole in the orice band is showing.
Figure 35 shows the pilot in the natural gas position. Figure 36 shows the pilot in propane gas
position.
13.On the gas conversion label included in the conversion kit, ll in the date and the name of the
person who performed the conversion in the white area on the conversion label. Peel off the pro-
tective backing and apply the conversion label directly onto the gas valve inside of the gas valve
control center.

Note: To test the gas pressure, turn off the gas supply before removing the plug from the sup-
ply pressure test port or manifold pressure test port.
Verify gas pressures with the fireplace lit and on the highest setting.
Correct gas pressure requirement:
Supply Pressure Natural Gas Propane
Min. Pressure 5.0" WC 12.5" WC
(For purpose of input adjustment)
Max. Pressure 13.9" WC 13.9" WC
Manifold Pressure
Maximum 3.5" WC 10" WC
Minimum 1.6" WC 6.4" WC
Gas Pressure Check
1. Remove the plug from the pressure test port. The plug is located between the right side lintel
and rebox side (Figure 39).
2. Thread the extension test tting into the open port (Figure 40).
3. Attach a pressure gauge onto the tting.
4. When testing is complete shut off the gas, remove the tting and replace the plug. Thread
sealant will be required to ensure a gas tight connection.

TC30_NG04D 200317-24 5056.42904D
The air shutter on the burner tube controls the primary combustion air. It is set to the closed position
at the factory for natural gas fuel. Some adjustment may be necessary to obtain desired ame and
to eliminate carbon deposits. Evaluate ame appearance after the replace has reached operating
temperature. See (Figure 42) for proper ame pattern.
Open primary air if the window glass and rebox have carbon accumulation and/or the ames are
long, dark and stringy. The shutter may also be opened to lessen the ame height.
NOTE:
Proper air shutter setting is required, fully closed for natural gas and half open for propane.
The ame should be just orange and “lazy”. It should NEVER be set to create sooting on internal
parts and window glass.
