Planning The Installation

HINT:

HINT:

HINT:

HINT:

Have an authorized Travis Industries dealer install this heater. If you install the heater yourself, have your dealer review your installation plans.

Sketch out a detailed plan of the installation including dimensions. Then verify the dimensions with the requirements listed in this manual.

When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations) and ceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure the vent does not intersect with a framing member.

Place the heater outside and load 10 pounds of pellets inside the hopper. Plug the heater in and let it run on HIGH until the pellets run out. This will cure the paint and burn off any oil on the steel, eliminating any smell inside the home.

Stove Placement

¥

¥

?

HINT:

Stove must be placed so that no combustibles are within, or can swing within (e.g. drapes, doors), 36" of the front of the heater.

If the stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7', it must follow the requirements in the section "Alcove Installation Requirements".

REDUCING CLEARANCES - Clearances may be reduced by methods specified in NFPA

211, listed wall shields, pipe shields, or other means approved by local building or fire officials.

Heater and floor protection must be installed on a level, secure floor.

Floor Protection Requirements

¥

¥

The heater must be installed on a non-combustible floor protector extending the full width and depth of the heater and extending 6" in front (Minimum 21-5/8" wide by 26-7/8" deep) (minimum .018" thick - 26 gauge) .

Alcove Installation Requirements

¥

¥

¥

¥

Whenever the pellet stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7' tall, it is considered an alcove installation. Because of the reduced height, the installation requirements listed below must be met.

Minimum height is 60"

Minimum width is 42"

Maximum depth is 48"

Minimum clearance of 9" on each side and 3" on back

Setting the Restrictor

In extremely rare cases the vent will produce too much draft for the stove. This leads to an inefficient burn, and in some cases, the flame going out. This typically happens in tall vertical installations or very short horizontal installations. The factory setting is wide open.

1 1

¥

¥ If un-burned pellets are expelled from the firepot often (make sure they are un-burned, not just cylindrical embers), the restrictor needs adjustment.

If on LOW the pellets burn too quickly and the flame goes out, the restrictor needs adjustment.

c

Use these index marks to gauge restrictor movement. Move the restrictor one position, then inspect the stoveÕs performance over a long period of time.

NOTE: You will not notice much change in the flame after adjusting the restrictor. Check stove performance over a long period of time.

Operation

Safety Notice

!

!

Read this entire manual (especially the "Safety Precautions" on pages 2 and 3) before using this stove. Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.

Do not unplug the stove to turn it off. This stove relies upon electricity to push the flue gases out the pellet vent Ð unplugging it may lead to smoke entering your room.

Failure to maintain your heater will lead to a restricted combustion air system, leading to poor performance and in some cases, smoke spillage into the room. See the

"Maintenance" section for details.

Location of Controls

Thermostat

(required for

Auto Operation)

Control Panel

Starting the Heater for the First Time

Curing the Paint

This stove uses a heat-activated paint that will emit some fumes while starting the first fire.

Open doors and windows to the room to vent these fumes. You may also notice oil burning off of the interior of the stove. This ruststopping agent will soon dissipate.

Priming the Auger

2 to 4 hours

AA

AAA

A

Because of its electronic control panel, this stove does not require priming. If you run out of pellets you may notice it will take approximately 5 minutes longer for the stove to start.

Operation

Auto Mode

Auto mode allows you to use a thermostat to control room temperature. The stove automatically turns on when the temperature drops below the thermostat setting. Once the stove reaches operating temperature, the stove then runs at the heat output setting selected.

To Adjust Room Temperature (or

Start the Stove)

Move the thermostat to the heat setting desired. If the room is cooler than the setting, the stove will go through the start-up sequence for approximately 10 minutes. Once up to temperature, the stove will then run at the heat output setting selected on the control panel. If the room is too hot, move the thermostat to a lesser setting.

1 9

To Adjust the Heat

Adjust the "Heat Output" dial to meet the heating requirements you desire.

NOTE:

If you find that the stove turns on and off repeatedly, you may wish to turn the heat output to a lesser setting. The lower setting will provide a more consistent heat output over time, eliminating the need for the thermostat to repeatedly turn the stove off.

NOTE:

If the thermostat calls for heat while the stove is still cooling down, the stove will go through the start-up sequence.

Start-Up Sequence

This stove utilizes a start-up sequence whenever the mode switch is changed or the heater is started when cold. This is to ensure proper operation through all possible settings and operational states (hot or cold, pellets burning or not burning, etc.). This sequence over-rides all user settings (except the

"OFF" position) to set the auger feed rate to high, the exhaust blower to high, and the igniter on.

"AUGER ON" Light

This light comes on when the auger is turning. This allows the operator to determine when the auger is turning.

Power Outages

!

If a sustained power outage occurs while in "Manual", the stove will go to a "cool down" mode to vacate smoke once power returns. If the power outage was short, the heater will go to the start-up sequence. If in "Auto", the stove will re-start (if the room is cool).

Because this stove relies upon a blower to evacuate the smoke, some smoke may enter the home during a power outage. To keep to a minimum, leave the door closed.

Disposal of Ashes Ð Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.

Clean the Glass

Open the door and clean the glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner and rag. This will increase the amount of light and heat given off by the heater.

Maintenance

Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons)

WARNING: Disconnect the power cord prior to conducting service.

The following section details extensive maintenance procedures. We strongly suggest these items be carried out by a trained service technician, possibly by a service agreement set up with your dealer.

Soot and Flyash: Formation and Need for Removal Ð The products of combustion will contain small particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if cleaning is necessary.

Clean the Vertical Exhaust Duct

(the stove must be cool and unplugged)

Remove both refractory side clips.

Clean this area behind where the refractory rests

(both sides).

Remove the refractory.

Remove these doors to remove fallen flyash and soot (see ÒBi-Weekly

Check for Air Leaks Around the Door, Glass, and Ashpan

!

Air leaks into the firebox will decrease the stove's performance greatly, leading to excessive sooting, inefficient burning, and perhaps a malfunction.

¥ Test the door seal by shutting the door on a dollar bill in various locations. If the bill can be easily slid out, air may be leaking around the door seal Ð inspect the door gasket and door catch carefully.

¥ Inspect the door gasket to make sure it is fully attached. Use stove gasket cement to re-attach if necessary. If the door gasket is worn or flattened, replace.

¥ Check the door to make sure it latches correctly. Slight adjustments can be made to the door catch if necessary (do not over-tighten this catch, an over-tightened catch will damage the door).

The latch should engage with a slight amount of resistance, yet not be difficult to engage.

¥ If the glass is cracked, replace. The glass is held in place by glass clips that are underneath the airwash brackets. See the illustration below for details.

¥ Remove the ashpan and inspect the gasket around the perimeter of the ashpan. Re-attach, or replace the gasket if necessary.

Optional Equipment

Center Flue Adapter (Part # 99300137)

¥

The center flue adapter centers the flue and has a short "tee". This positions the vent closer to the stove than a normal "tee", allowing for tighter installations and easier access.

The adapter is made by Simpson Duravent¨. Use Simpson Duravent¨ vent for the entire system.

Hint

1)

2)

To ease cleaning of the "tee", we recommend the use of the twist-on cap manufactured by Simpson Duravent¨ (part number 3067A). This component replaces the cap on the

"tee" and allows access to the cleanout without tools.

The center flue adapter has two pieces: a custom "tee" and a 45

°

elbow. The 45

°

elbow, which centers the vent, is not required (proceed to step 2 if not using). Before installing, remove the elbow, apply high-temperature silicone to the pipe joint and attach the elbow to the "tee" so the elbow bends upwards when attached. Use three screws (use selfdrilling "zip " or metal screws) to secure these two pieces together.

Apply high-temperature silicone to the "tee" pipe joint where it connects to the stove.

Use three screws (use self-drilling "zip " or metal screws) to secure the "tee" to the stove.
