Installation Preparation
HINT: If converting to LP, convert the appliance prior to installation.
HINT: Install the logs last - they are fragile.
HINT: When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations)
and ceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position
slightly to ensure the vent does not intersect with a framing member.
HINT: Fumes and smoke from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur the first time
you start this heater. This is normal. We recommend you open windows to vent the room.

grounding method - current ANSI/NFPA 70 or CSA C22.1).

Installation (for qualified installers only) 7
Travis Industries 4041220 93508123
Heater Placement Requirements
•Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent
•Due to the high temperature of the heater, it should be located out of traffic and away from
furniture and draperies.
?When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installation is
considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:
•The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 58”tall
•The alcove must not be more than 45”deep before the ceiling returns to 7’
•The alcove must be at least 46-3/4”wide
•The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of heater, or
along the back of the heater can become blocked.
•This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this
appliance produces when determining a location.
Floor Protection Requirements
•When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than
wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on a metal or
wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater (Minimum 22-1/8”wide by
15-5/8”deep).
Gas Line Installation
!The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow current ANSI
Z223.1 or NFPA 54.
!The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA). For pressures under 1/2
psig (3.45 kPA), isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual
shutoff valve.
•This heater is designed for natural gas but can be converted to propane.
Check sticker on top of gas control valve to verify correct fuel.
•Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after
starting the heater.
•The gas inlet accepts a 3/8”F.P.T. Fitting
•The location of the gas inlet is shown below
•A manual shutoff valve is required for installation (it must be located
within 3’of the heater). T-Handle gas cocks are required in
Massachusetts in compliance with code 248CMR.
•Installation must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or
the gas supplier (In Massachusetts a licensed plumber/gasfitter).

?If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total gas load
for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.
?The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane
tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas
supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.

Vent Requirements
!Always maintain the required 1”(25 mm) clearance (air space) to combustible materials to prevent a fire
hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
!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.
Altitude Considerations
This heater has been tested at altitudes
ranging from sea level to 8,000 feet
(2,400 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.
•When the vent passes through a wall,
a wall thimble is required. When the
vent passes through a ceiling, a
support box or firestop is required.
When the vent passes through the
roof, a roof flashing and storm collar
are required. Follow the instructions
provided with the vent for installing
these items.
Use a firestop spacer whenever
passing through a ceiling

•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

Finalizing the Installation
!Turn the gas control valve to “OFF”prior to conducting any service.
1Open the door (see page 16)
2Install the log set and coals (see page 17).
!We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the door open). This allows gas to be
detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up.
3Close and secure the door (see page 16)
4Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the appliance. Start the pilot. Start
the main burner. Leak test all gas joints again.
5Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration to the below. Adjust the pilot flame if
necessary.
Standard
Screwdriver
The pilot flame must contact the thermocouple and
thermopile (see the illustration below). Adjust the pilot up or
down as necessary.
To adjust the pilot flame, turn this screw (NOTE: if totally
unscrewed gas will come out of this port). Clockwise
lowers the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.
6Let the heater burn for thirty minutes. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct
looking flame (see the illustration to on the following page).
•The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. It is
used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.
!If the air shutter is in its fully open position, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the heater and
contact your dealer for a remedy.
NOTE: If the air shutter is all the way
open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut
off gas to the fireplace and contact a
qualified gas service technician.
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 If the flames are all blue and
short, close the air shutter.
Too Much Air
NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.
Air Shutter Control
Pushing to the right gives the flame less air
(making it more orange). Pushing to the
left gives the flame more air, making it
more blue. For fine adjustments use a
screwdriver to tap the air shutter.

!If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the heater to lift or
“ghost”–a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after installation to insure proper performance. If
the vent configuration is correct, yet the flames are lifting or ghosting, shut off gas to the heater and
contact the dealer for information on remedying the problem.
The flames should burn right off
the top of the burner ports (if they
are too blue, adjust the air control).
If the flames are lifting, yet the
vent configuration is correct,
contact your dealer.
Burner Pan Burner Ports
(holes)
If the flames are ghosting, yet the
vent configuration is correct,
contact your dealer.
7Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should be a maximum 9”to 10”tall.
Check the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of each burner hole. If the heater does
not work correctly, contact your dealer for a remedy.
