5. Install the logs (see page 42).
6. Replace the glass.
7. Start the heater.
8. 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.
10. Turn the flame adjust knob 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.
Special Instructions for Concealment Cover
11. Give this manual to the home owner for future reference and fully explain operation of this heater. For
comprehensive operating and maintenance instructions, refer to the Owner's Manual (part # 100-01305).
ACID WASH WARNING: Before installing the faceplate, make sure any masonry that has been treated with acid
wash has been properly neutralized (this is used primarily with brick faces). Acid wash (muriatic acid) is used to
remove excess mortar. If not properly neutralized with an ammonia solution, the plated face may develop a
permanent tarnish when the acid evaporates over time. Contact your dealer if uncertain your facing has been
properly neutralized.
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 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
NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.
Moving the air shutter control to the right
gives the flame less air (closed) - making it
more orange. Moving it to the left gives the
flame more air (open), making it more blue.
For fine adjustments use a screwdriver to
tap the air shutter.
