Stove Installation (for qualified installers only) 7

SAFETY NOTICE:

Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new room heater. Failure to follow

instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. Contact local building or fire

officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area.

Planning The Installation

We suggest that you have an authorized Travis Industries dealer install your stove. If you install the

stove yourself, your authorized dealer should review your installation plans.

Check with local building officials for any permits required for installation of this stove and notify your

insurance company before proceeding with installation.

We recommend using a slip-joint connector above the stove. This allows the flue to be disconnected

when removing the door (see “Removing the Door” on page 27).

Preparation for Installation

• Check for damage to the exterior of the stove (dents should be reported, scratches can be fixed by

applying touch up paint).

• Check the interior of the firebox (replace cracked firebrick and make sure baffle is in place).

The stove can be lightened by removing the firebricks and baffle (pg 28) - replace before operation.

Stove Installation Considerations

The table below details the six most common types of installations and the considerations for each type.

Alternative methods of installation are available if they comply with local building codes.

Installation Type Considerations

Standard Ceiling with a Factory Built Chimney

(Page 15)

• Requires ceiling and roof penetration

• Provides best draft

Cathedral Ceiling with a Factory Built Chimney

(Page 15)

• Cathedral style chimney support required

• Provides best draft

Exterior Factory Built Chimney

(Page 16)

• Uses two elbows to route chimney outside

• Exterior chimney is hidden from the room

• Elbows reduce draft

• Optional exterior chase reduces cold air blockage

Hearth Stove Positive Connection

(Page 16)

• Utilizes existing masonry or zero clearance (metal) chimney

• Provides good draft due to full reline

• Easier to clean than direct or horizontal hearth stove

Hearth Stove Direct Connection

(Page 17)

• Utilizes existing masonry or zero clearance (metal) chimney

• Requires construction of a "block-off plate"

• Draft reduced due to elbows & chimney cross section

Interior Masonry Chimney

(Page 17)

• Utilizes existing masonry chimney (not approved for zero

clearance (metal) fireplaces)

Center Divider

The center divider allows the installer to conceal the area

under the stove. It is shipped in the forward position to

allow for outside air and blower connection. If not using

these accessories, it may be moved to the rear to allow

more room under the stove. The divider has keyhole-slots

to ease installation and removal. Pre-thread the screw

holes before installing.
