Dvõs Only; Incorrect Restrictor Position; Logs Placed Incorrectly; Burner Pan Holes Clogged - Travis Industries Spirit 300 GS Service Manual

Incorrect Restrictor Position

DVÕs Only
Direct vent appliances require a restrictor to regulate exhaust velocity. With the restrictor set too low,
the flames will flutter and the flames will be short. Set too high, the flames will be lazy and it may be
difficult to set the air shutter position to a clean, yet attractive, flame.
Remedy
Use the chart in the owner's manual to determine the restrictor position.
The restrictor position indicated in the owner's manual is based upon lab tests. The optimum setting
may be slightly different.

Logs Placed Incorrectly

The ceramic fiber logs must be placed correctly on the burner pan for the heater to burn correctly. Too
much flame impingement on the logs, sooting, or no "glowing" are symptoms of incorrectly placed
logs (or an incorrectly adjusted air shutter). This may lead to excessive sooting, increased emissions,
shortened flames, and decreased efficiency.
Remedy
Place the logs correctly (see the ownerÕs manual).

Burner Pan Holes Clogged

If the flames on the heater do not completely light across the width of the burner, there may be some
debris clogging the burner pan holes (check for any pieces of log that may have chipped off, lint, etc.).
There might also be occasional "lifting" of flames in this case.
Remedy
Remove the logs from the burner and clean all the burner pan holes.
