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.

Leveling Bolt Installation

Two leveling bolts are included to level the insert if the fireplace has a stepped-up hearth. To install, raise
the rear of the insert and insert the leveling bolts into the holes in the rear corners of the insert. Adjust the
bolts until they extend the same height as the hearth (see Figure 19). After the insert is installed, fine-
tune the leveling bolts to level the insert.
