Installation Hints:
1

If converting to LP, convert the appliance prior to installation.

2

The blower is easiest to install prior to installation. Because the blower is located near the gas inlet
location, we recommend using the included pipe and elbow to route the gas inlet around the blower
position.

3

Install the logs last - they are fragile.

4

When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations) andceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure
the vent does not intersect with a framing member.

5

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.

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 fromfurniture and draperies. Heater must be placed so no combustibles are within, or canswing within 36” of the front of the heater (e.g. drapes, doors)?

When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installationis 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 ofheater, 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 thisappliance produces when determining a location.

•

Floor Protection Requirements•

When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material otherthan wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed ona metal or wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater(Minimum 26-3/4” wide by 19” deep).
Make sure these rubber tippedbolts on each leg contact the floor(they dampen any noise that may
transmit through the hearth). Do
not adjust with weight on the legs,
the rubber tips may tear.

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 in the USA and the current CGA B149 in Canada.

!

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 the sticker on
top of the gas control valve to verify the correct fuel is used (see page 4).

•

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.

With the included pipe
installed, the gas inlet is
located at the location

Vent Requirements!

Always maintain the required 1” 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.
• This appliance is equipped only for
altitudes 0-2000 ft. (0-610m) in USA;in Canada, 0-4500 ft. (0-1370m).
However, our in-house testing has
shown that the unit operated ataltitudes to 8000 ft.

Failure to inspect and maintain the stove may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous situation.
The following procedures must be done by a qualified technician.
Check the pilot flame. It should touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the thermopile and touch the top of thethermocouple (see illustration below). If it does not, contact your dealer for service.
Shut off gas to the stove by turning the gas control knob to "OFF" (see step A under "Starting the Pilot" on page25). Let the stove cool for 15 minutes. Remove the face and glass (see page 22).
Remove the log set (NOTE: the logs are very fragile - see page 23). If severely deteriorated, replace.
Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting
is found, the stove will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.
Inspect the firebox for the following:•
Check the burner for cracked, plugged, or deteriorated holes.
•
Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.
•If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

How this Stove Works!

This stove was designed with safety as the primary concern. Many of the components inside thisstove are for safety purposes. Therefore, only certified gas service technicians should service thisstove.

What Turns the Main Burners On and Off

When heated, the thermopile
generates electricity (a very small
amount measured in "Millivolts").

This electricity isused to operate themain burners.

The main burners
are switched on and
off using theelectricity generated
by the thermopile.
The ON/OFF switch,
remote control, or
thermostat control
the circuit to the mainburner.

MAIN BURNER

This stove uses a millivolt system to control its operation (a millivolt is a very small amount of electricity).
The thermopile and thermocouple generate electricity when heated by the pilot flame. This electricity
is used to operate the gas valve. Without enough electricity, the gas valve will not turn on. That is why
when starting the pilot the gas control knob has to be pressed in long enough for the thermocouple toheat up and generate enough electricity. The thermopile provides power for the ON/OFF switch,
remote control, or thermostat (see the illustration below). Because the thermopile generates theelectricity needed to turn the stove on and off, this stove can be operated when the power is out(although the blower will not run).

What Prevents Gas Buildup+This appliance utilizes a high-technology gas valve in conjunction with a pilot flame to ensure no gas
builds up inside the firebox.

+

The thermocouple (next to the pilot) senses when the pilot flame is lit. If the pilot flame goes out, thisthermocouple no longer generates electricity, causing the gas valve to automatically shut off all gas tothe heater, preventing the pilot from spilling gas into the firebox.

Pilot Flame
The pilot flame is a time-provencomponent that eliminates the possibilityof gas buildup inside the firebox.
Gas ValveThis high-technology valve automaticallyshuts off all gas if it does not receive a signal
from the thermocouple. If any component isdamaged or sensing a malfunction, or if thewiring is damaged, it will shut off all gas.
Thermocouple
The thermocouple generates a small
amount of electricity. If the pilot flame
goes out, the gas valve automaticallyshuts off all gas.

Travis Industries

External Shut Off Valve
This valve is placed on the gas line
to shut off gas to the applianceduring maintenance procedures.

Ceramic Glass
The glass in your heater is the mostdurable glass available. It has beentested to be extremely resistant tobreakage from temperature changes.
