Finalizing the Installation
8. 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.
Correct
Flames should be blue at the
base, yellow-orange on the top.
Air Shutter Adjustment
The air shutters may be adjusted while the burner is on (take care to prevent contacting the burner
area).
There are two air shutters on this fireplace - adjust both air shutters to obtain the correct flame.
Move the controls left or right until the flame
looks correct. The rear air shutter affects
the rear portion of the burner, the front air
shutter the front portion of the burner.
Pushing to the left gives the flame more air,
making it more blue. Pushing to the right
gives the flame less air, making it more
orange.
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.
9. 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.
10. 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 # 100-01181).
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.
