Overview
The dehumidifier is intended for those DaVinci fireplaces encountering condensation on the inside of the
glass. This is most common in areas with high humidity using air-conditioning inside the home (especially
when the temperature difference inside to outside is significant). The dehumidifier system consists of a circuit
board and a small heating element. When the circuit board detects the conditions for condensation (the dew
point – high humidity and cold air) it turns the heater on. The heater stays on just long enough to warm the
firebox interior, preventing water from condensing on the inside of the glass. The dehumidifier only operates
when the fireplace is off.
Before using this kit, make sure intake dampers are installed on all intakes. This prevents air
from circulating inside the fireplace and is the best method for reducing condensation.
SHUT OFF ELECTRICITY TO THE FIREPLACE PRIOR TO INSTALLING THE DE-
HUMIDIFIER (DISCONNECT CIRCUIT BREAKER).

    The rheostat should be located on an adjacent vertical support at a similar height. NOTE: The rheostat may not be accessible using the external cover plate after it is re-positioned.   Page 2 of 5 17601959 - Printed 1/24/17 © Travis Industries, Inc.
  • Page 3 3 Burner units have a smaller span between the supports. Re-position the mounting brackets on the heating element assembly to the inner holes to shorten the length of the assembly. Page 3 of 5 17601959 - Printed 1/24/17 © Travis Industries, Inc.
  • Page 4 Attach the heating-element-harness from the circuit board to the wires from the heating element (orientation does not matter). Make sure to route the wires so they do not contact any hot components.   Page 4 of 5 17601959 - Printed 1/24/17 © Travis Industries, Inc.
