Your dealer will know the requirements in your area and can inform you of those people considered qualified. The room heater should be inspected and cleaned 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 either approved for natural gas (NG) or for 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. Check for a label on the flame adjust knob on the gas control valve (this is the best place to check). You may also check for a label on the gas control valve body. Ok Contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or inspection requirements in your area. Notify your insurance company of this heater as well. 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. Gas 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 that has been under water.

The kit lowers the face and surround panels 1-1/4”. This means you must install this with a raised fireplace or raise the insert 1-1/4” above the hearth. To do this you may extend the leveling bolts or place bricks or other non-combustible under the insert. 1-1/4” Installation (for qualified installers only) 13 © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Gas Line Requirements MASSACHUSETTS INSTALLATIONS - WARNING: THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY A LICENSED PLUMBER OR GAS FITTER WHEN INSTALLED WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS. OTHER MASSACHUSETTS CODE REQUIREMENTS: • Flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches. • Shutoff valve must be a “T” handle gas cock. • Only direct vent sealed combustion products are approved for bedrooms or bathrooms. • Fireplace dampers must be removed or welded in the open position prior to the installation of a fireplace insert or gas log. • A carbon monoxide (CO) detector is required in the same room as the appliance. • The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI 223.1 and the requirements listed below. • A manual shutoff valve is required within 3’ of the heater. It should be placed upstream of the flex line (if used) and may be installed behind the access door inside the heater. ). • 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. For pressures under 1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve. • Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the heater. • This heater is designed either for natural gas or for propane (but not for both). Check the sticker on the top of the gas control valve to make sure the correct fuel is used (see illustration on page 4). • Installation must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier (In Massachusetts a licensed plumber/gasfitter). Gas Line Location The gas inlet accepts a 1/2" MPT. 2-3/4" Shutoff Valve (secured to the fireplace insert) Fireplace Opening Gas Inlet Pressure Standard Input Pressure Natural Gas 7" W.C. (1.74 kPA) Propane 13" W.C. (2.73 kPA) • If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough, the supply regulator is adequately adjusted, 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 above. Contact the local gas supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure. Electrical Connection • Route the power cord out of the access hole on the right side of the appliance. • Plug the power cord into a grounded 120 Volt outlet (do not remove the grounding pin). • The electrical connection may also be made using the optional Wiring Kit (SKU 97200315). 14 Installation (for qualified installers only) © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 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 it's own separate vent system. • Make sure the exhaust pipe on the heater connects to the exhaust portion of the cap. The illustrations below show how the flex liners should be attached. • The exhaust vent must reline the entire length of the chimney and terminate above the chimney top • Be careful not to crimp or rupture the liner when bending it into chimney offsets • When installed, the vent must meet all of the vent manufacturer's requirements • Make sure to use the following: 3” UL 441 or 1775 Gas Liner for Exhaust and Air Inlet Simpson Duravent 6-5/8” to 3” & 3” Co-Linear Adapter and Flashing Simpson Duravent High-Wind Vertical Termination Cap Max. Ht. 40' Min. Ht. 8' Inlet (3" dia.) Exhaust (3" dia.) Max. 2' offset 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. Installation (for qualified installers only) 15 © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Vent Restrictor WARNING: Restrictor adjustment should only be done by a qualified installer. Only those installations determined to be over-drafting require this adjustment. The best indication of over-drafting is a hyper-active flame pattern (flames that move too quickly). If the air shutter is constricted, the flames become short and yellow, yet still very active. Over-drafting may affect the pilot, but this is not the best way to determine over-drafting. Over-drafting is most likely in tall venting configurations (especially if using an “Exhaust Only Re-Line”). Do not over-restrict the vent (this leads to ghosting or lifting flames - reduce restrictor setting). Remove the face. To Adjust the Restrictor: To Access the Restrictor: This restrictor is in position 1 (factory setting). This restrictor is in position 2. Adjustment Bracket To adjust, lift up on the adjustment plate and push it back (use pliers if necessary). WARNING: Use a glove to protect your hand from burns. Adjustment Plate #2#3 1 2 Determine a restrictor position. Start low (move the restrictor a maximum two positions at a time) and thoroughly test the heater before adjusting further.

Finalizing the Installation 25 © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Front Ember Chunk Placement This log set includes a left, center, and right-side ember chunk (see photo below). Left Ember Chunk Center Ember Chunk Right Ember Chunk Place the ember chunks as shown in the photos below. Make sure the ember chunks do not cover any burner holes. Right Side Ember Chunk Center Ember Chunk Left Side Ember Chunk Rockwool Installation The included rock wool is placed on top of the burner to enhance the glow from the burner. The rock wool works best when it is applied in a very thin, porous layer. The best method for applying the rock wool is to brush it on to the burner. Compress a clump of rockwool between your thumb and forefinger. Use a stiff brush to apply a thin layer of rockwool fibers onto the burner. Do not use the entire bag of rockwool. Use only a small amount and save the remainder. Over-use of rockwool will diminish the glow and may cause sooting or other adverse conditions. 26 Finalizing the Installation © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Steps for Finalizing the Installation 1. Remove the glass (see page 20). NOTE: If using propane (LP) convert the appliance prior to installing the logs. 2. We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the glass removed). This allows gas to be detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up. 3. Make sure the accent light bulb is in place. NOTE: Take care to not touch the bulb with your fingers – use a cloth or paper towel). 4. Install the four AA batteries and receiver cover (included in the owner’s pack - see illustration below). The AA batteries act as a power backup in case the household (AC) power goes out and are required for operation. Install the 9v battery (included in the owner’s pack) into the battery holder (see illustration below). This battery is for the control panel lights. Install three AAA batteries into the remote (see illustration below). Synchronize the transmitter to the receiver (see page 28). 9v Batte r y Battery Holder for Control Panel Lights ACCENT LIGHT OFF HIGH LOW CONTINUOUS PILOT GREEN SMART PILOT ON REMOTE OFF PRG °F AAA Batt er y AAA Batt e r y AAA Batt e r y A A B a t t e r y A A B a t t e r y A A B a t t e r y A A B a t t e r y The remote receiver uses 4 AA batteries.

Leak test all gas joints. 9. Check the air shutter following the directions below. Air Shutter Adjustment Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes (make sure the logs and glass are in place). The flames should be yellow with no sooting. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct looking flame. Correct Flames should be blue at the base, yellow-orange on the top.If the flames are too 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 Swing the control cover down to access the air shutters. Front Burner Air Shutter Control (RED) Right = Less Air Left = More Air Rear Burner Air Shutter Control (GOLD) Left = Less Air Right = More Air 10. Attach the face following the directions included with the face. NOTE: If using a Rosario or Discovery face you will need to modify the face connector (see page 11 for details). NOTE: If using the Arched, Artisan, Metropolitan, or Victorian Lace Face you must use the face mounting brackets included with the heater (see page 12 for details). 11. Adjust the flame to its highest position - the flames should not contact the top of the firebox. Check the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of each burner hole. If the heater does not work correctly, contact your Travis dealer for a remedy. 12. Give this manual to the home owner for future reference and fully explain operation of this heater. 28 Operation © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Before You Begin • Read this entire manual before you use your new heater (especially the section "Safety Precautions" on pages 4 & 5). Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. Remote Set-Up Verify the Fan Control Module is On The fan control module has a power switch. Make sure it is in the ON (“-“) position (see Figure 1). This switch must remain in the ON position for the AC components to operate (Accent Light and Optional Blower). The module also supplies low-voltage for the fireplace controller. By leaving it in the OFF position, the fireplace will operate off the receiver batteries, greatly diminishing battery life. ” Figure 1 Synchronize the Transmitter to the Receiver The transmitter will need to be synchronized to the receiver before the remote will work correctly. Synchronizing is done in the following two steps below (see Figure 2): a) Press the PRG (Program) button on the receiver using a paperclip or equivalent device (receiver will beep 3 times). b) Press the “ON” button on the transmitter (receiver will beep 4 times). °F "Beep" "Beep" "Beep" "Beep" "Beep" "Beep" “Beep” Figure 2 NOTE: If power is cut off to the receiver for an extended period of time, you may need to re-synchronize the remote. Operation 29 © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Starting the Heater for the First Time • Burn the heater at a high setting with the blower off for an extended period (up to 48 hours). This will cure the painted surfaces. Fumes from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel will occur. This is normal. We recommend opening a window to vent the room. • Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the heater - this is normal. • Blue Flames will occur on the heater when it first comes on. After fifteen minutes the flames will turn a more realistic yellow and orange color. • Verify the power backup and control light batteries are installed (see page 38). Location of Controls ACCENT LIGHT OFF HIGH LOW CONTINUOUS PILOT GREEN SMART PILOT ON REMOTE OFF PRG Swing the access door and control cover down to access the controls on the insert.°F Most features will be controlled by the included remote. 30 Operation © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Direct Operation The fireplace may be directly operated from the receiver. The three positions are below (see Figure 3): ON – Burner turns on (regardless of transmitter settings). OFF – Burner turns off (regardless of transmitter settings). REMOTE – Burner is controlled by the transmitter. ON REMOTE OFF PRG Figure 3 NOTE: When the receiver switch is turned to ON or OFF, the mode settings (Accent Light, Blower, Flame Height, Comfort Control) will remain in the same state as before the switch was moved (i.e.: the receiver “remembers” the last setting). If you wish to adjust the mode settings use the transmitter mode button to adjust the settings (see “Mode Controls” on page 34). The thermostat and burner on/off operating functions will not work on the transmitter. Operation 31 © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Accent Light This heater has a built-in accent light that may be turned on and off and dimmed to your preference. Turn the knob to achieve the desired light output. ACCENT LIGHT OFF HIGH LOW OFF LOW HIGH Continuous Pilot / GreenSmart™ Pilot Switch This heater may run with the pilot continuously running or in GreenSmart (intermittent) mode. For most homeowners, the GreenSmart mode is preferred (this saves fuel, doesn’t give off un-needed heat). However, in some situations the homeowner may prefer to switch the heater to continuous pilot. The most typical reasons for switching to continuous pilot are: CONTINUOUS PILOT GREEN SMART PILOT • Very Cold Conditions – in very cold conditions you may notice that the burner does not light quickly, and the flames lift off the burner. If this is situation, we recommend you switch to continuous pilot. This will create a slight draft in the vent, allowing for the burner to light quickly and draft correctly. • Excessive Condensation on Glass After Startup – certain installations may encounter excessive fogging on the window after stuartup (not just the first time the heater was started). This is an aesthetic condition that may be remedied by switching the heater to continuous pilot. • Cold Glass or Heater Front – in very cold conditions you may notice that the heater front and glass become very cold. To remedy this, switch the heater to continuous pilot. • Frequent On / Off Operation – if you are frequently turning the heater on and off, you may wish to leave it in continuous pilot. This allows the burner to turn on more quickly, without pilot ignition delay. 32 Operation © Travis Industries 4090812 100-01232_001 Remote Operation Once the receiver is switched to “REMOTE” the transmitter operates the fireplace. Once you understand how the transmitter works, you will be able to operate your fireplace quickly and easily. Display Overview The transmitter display has four main sections (see Figure 4).
