! 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 Replace the glass (and arch covers when using arched faces - see page 29).
4 Turn on the gas to the fireplace. Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the
appliance. Start the pilot (see page 38). Start the main burner. Leak test all gas joints again.
5 Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration 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.
6 Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes. Adjust the rear air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct looking
flame (see the illustration below).
• The air shutters adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. They are
used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.
NOTE: If the air control 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.
Back Air
Control
This heater uses three air controls. Adjust
the controls in or out until the flame looks
correct. Pushing in gives the flame less air
(making it more orange). Pulling out gives
the flame more air, making it more blue.

! If the air shutters are fully open position, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the heater and contact
your Travis Industries Dealer for a remedy.
! If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the fireplace to lift or
"ghost" – a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after installation to insure proper performance. If the vent
