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 Canada follow CSA B149.1.
•A manufactured home (USA only) or mobile home OEM installation must conform with the
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, or Standard for Gas Equipped Recreational Vehicles and Mobile Housing, CSA Z240.4. 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. The venting must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a
separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
•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.
•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.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been under water.
•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.
•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 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 and call your dealer for service.
•This unit is not for use with solid fuel.
•Do not place anything inside the firebox (except approved Travis Industries components).
•Warning: Do not operate appliance with the glass front removed, cracked or broken. Replacement
of the glass should be done by a licensed or qualified service person.
•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.
•Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance.
Toddlers, young children and others may be susceptible to accidental contact burns. A physical
barrier is recommended if there are at risk individuals in the house. To restrict access to a fireplace
or stove, install an adjustable safety gate to keep toddlers, young children and other at risk individuals
out of the room and away from hot surfaces.
•Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay
away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Do not touch the hot surfaces of the heater. Educate all
children of the danger of a high-temperature 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 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 (12” Rise – see page 23)
Minimum Clearance Above Vent 4" (104mm)
Minimum Clearance to Sides & Below Vent 1" (25mm)
NOTE: Make sure to use the included firestops with this configuration.
All Other Vent Configurations
Minimum Clearance to Vent 1" (25mm)
Vent Firestop
•A firestop is required whenever the vent penetrates a wall, floor, or ceiling (passes through framing
members).
Altitude Considerations
•This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 feet (1800 M). 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
•Always use the high-wind cap. The high-wind sconce cap is not allowed.
•Installation instructions for Simpson Dura-Vent may be found at www.duravent.com.
Minimum Vent Configurations (12” Rise – see page 23)
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. Check 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-combustible support every three feet (e.g.: plumbing strap).

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 vent configurations detail the correct vent restrictor positions.
Exhaust Restrictor
NOTE: Certain vent configurations call for exhaust restrictor removal (position # 0). If this is the case, remove the
exhaust restrictor and replace the attachment screws in the firebox ceiling.
Loosen these 2 screws on
the exhaust restrictor.
Slide the restrictor to the correct
restrictor position (see the illustration
below). Screw location indicates
restrictor position. In this example, the
restrictor is set in position # 4. Tighten
the screws to secure the restrictor.
