Fireplace Insert Installation
Drafting Performance
This appliance relies upon natural draft to operate. External forces, such as wind, barometric pressure,
topography, or factors of the home (negative pressure from exhaust fans, chimneys, air infiltration, etc.),
may adversely affect draft. Travis Industries can not be responsible for external forces leading to less
than optimal performance.
Insert Rollers
Two rollers are built into the back edge of the insert. This
allows the insert to be rolled into position by lifting the front
of the insert and pushing it into position (see
Leveling Bolt Installation
Two leveling bolts are pre-installed on the insert to allow for
proper leveling within the fireplace. To access the bolts,
remove the back corner firebricks and cover plates (see
Figure 6 "a" and "b") The bolts are pre-threaded to a weld-
nut on the base of the insert. Use a 3/4" socket wrench to
screw the bolts down (clockwise) until the insert is level
(see "c").
MASONRY NOTE: You may wish to place a metal plate
below the bolt if the masonry is weak.
SEALING THE COVER PLATE: We recommend sealing
the cover plate with furnace cement (place on underside of
cover plate).
BOLT LENGTH: The included bolts allow approximately 1"
of rise. If additional rise is required, use a longer 1/2-13
thread bolt. Make sure the additional bolt length does not
interfere with the cover plate.
Flue Installation
The flue must be 6" diameter and a minimum 24 gauge black steel.
Use a starter section and screws to secure the flue to the insert. The starter section may require a
notch to fit over the bypass rod.
