Yearly Service Procedure - Travis Industries 33 DVI GSB2 Owner's Manual

Yearly Service Procedure


Failure to inspect and maintain the heater may lead to improper combustion and a potentially
dangerous situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician.
1. Turn the pilot flame to continuous. It should touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the flame sensor.
If it does not, contact your dealer for service.
2. Shut off gas to the heater and let it cool for 15 minutes. Remove the glass (see page 22). Glass may
be cleaned with glass cleaner and a soft cloth (do not use abrasive cleaners).
3. Remove the media. If severely deteriorated, replace. Check the media for sooting. A small amount
of soot along the bottom of the media is normal. If excessive sooting is found, the heater will require
adjustment. Contact your dealer.
4. Inspect the burner and remove any debris.

Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged.

Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.

If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
5. Replace the media. Clean and replace the glass. If the glass is damaged, replace. Make sure the
gasket along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If
it does not, re-align or replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal.
6. Inspect the area behind the access door. Clean if necessary. Check the
gas control valve and the gas lines. If damage is found, discontinue use
and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels, ducts, and
blower (if applicable).
7. Start the main burner. Inspect the main burner and pilot flame. After 15
minutes the flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the
firebox. If the pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your
dealer for service. Monitor blower operation.
8. Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact
your dealer if any sooting or deterioration is found near the vent
termination. Venting system should be examined by a qualified agency.
