Thermostat Program 2

In Thermostat Mode Program 2 when the thermostat stops calling for heat (the thermostat is open) the
following happens:
 The burn rate decreases to Level 1 (low) for 15 minutes. If there is no call for heat during that time…
 The unit turns off.
If there is a call for heat by the thermostat (the thermostat is closed) at any point during this cool-down
period then the burn rate resumes corresponding with the setting on the control panel.

Thermostat Program 3

In Thermostat Mode Program 3 when the thermostat stops calling for heat (the thermostat is open) the
following happens:
 The burn rate decreases to Level 1 (low) and remains at this level until there is a call for heat by the

thermostat (the thermostat is closed), then resumes corresponding with the setting on the control
panel.

Start-Up Sequence (Igniter)


The heater enters a start-up sequence whenever there is a call for heat and the heater isn’t hot (on). This
ensures proper operation through all settings and operational states (hot or cold, pellets burning or not
burning, etc.), and overrides all user settings (except the OFF position). During this period the START light
will flash. The insert will not enter start-up if you are loading pellets into the hopper.
During the start-up sequence, the pellets will load into the fire platform, the flame will ignite, and the room
air blower will come on when the heater comes up to the selected temperature.
NOTE: If the heater doesn’t light 2 times in a row, both the START and STOP lights will turn on. The
combustion blower will run for about an hour before shutting off. Check to make sure there are pellets in
the hopper. We recommend cleaning the burn pot and making sure all air ports are clear of debris. Reset
the unit by unplugging it and then plugging it back in.

Power Outages

BECAUSE THIS INSERT RELIES UPON A
BLOWER TO EVACUATE SMOKE, SOME
SMOKE MAY ENTER THE HOME DURING
A POWER OUTAGE. LEAVE THE DOOR
CLOSED TO KEEP THE POSSIBILITY OF
SMOKE SPILLAGE TO A MINIMUM.

NOTE:

Travis Industries recommends a minimum vertical vent of 5’ to ensure adequate draft during a
power outage.

NOTE:

The exhaust blower will start and run up to 20 minutes every time power is interrupted (or the
power cord is unplugged and plugged in). The red light on the control panel will also turn on.
This safety feature evacuates smoke from the heater after a power interruption.

Manual Mode

After power is restored, if the heater is hot, it will enter the start-up sequence. If the unit has cooled it will
enter a cool-down phase (exhaust blower will run up to 20 minutes to ensure smoke evacuation).

TSTAT Mode

After power is restored, if the thermostat calls for heat, the unit will enter the start-up sequence and restart.
If the thermostat does not call for heat it will enter a cool-down phase (exhaust blower will run up to 20
minutes to ensure smoke evacuation).
