Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct
flame (see the illustration below).
¥

The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes.
It is used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.

Correct

Flames should be blue at the
base, yellow-orange on the top.

If the flames are too tall or sooty on
the ends, push up on the lever.

If the flames are all blue and
short, pull down the lever.

Not Enough Air

Too Much Air

Locate the air shutter adjustment
lever behind the gas control valve.
Move it up or down until the flame
is correct. Pushing up gives the
flame more air (making it bluer).
Pulling it down cuts air down,
making it more orange.

NOTE: If the air control is all the
way up, yet the flames remain
sooty, shut off gas to the fireplace
and contact a qualified gas service
technician.

NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.

If the air shutter is in its fully open position, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the
heater and contact your Travis Industries Dealer for a remedy.

!

If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the heater to
lift or "ghost" Ð a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after installation to insure proper
performance. If the vent configuration is correct, yet the flames are lifting or ghosting, shut off
gas to the heater and contact the dealer for information on remedying the problem.

The flames should burn right off
the top of the burner ports (if they
are too blue, adjust the air control).

If the flames are lifting, yet the
vent configuration is correct,
contact your dealer.
