Fuel Conversion
CAU
TION: This should only by performed by a licensed gas professional.
Convertible Gas Regulator:
Currently all Natural Gas burners are supplied with a regulator which is appropriate for use with
Natural Gas or
low pressure
Propane.
1. When converting to Propane Gas, the most common Propane canister used is a smaller sized
portable
canister (typically 5 gallons or 20 pounds).The pre-installed regulator will need to be
converted to LP gas (see below) and add a secondary low pressure hose and
regulator with an
outbound pressure set to approximately 11” of water column pressure. If an individual
is intending
on using Propane provided from a larger tank permanently installed on location, the
regulator
included with the appliance will only need to be converted for use with LP fuel (see NG-LP
Regulator
Conversion below). Please be aware that this included regulator can only withstand
an inbound pressure of .5 PSI or
roughly 14 inches of water column pressure. Any higher
pressure on location will have to be further
regulated before connecting to the regulator on the
appliance. Please consult your local Propane gas
provider to confirm the gas pressure on the
supply line feeding the appliance.
2. If converting to Natural Gas, a low pressure regulator with an outbound pressure set to 4” of Water
Column pressure must be used.
3. With either setup,
remember to always check for gas leaks after the job is complete (see checking
for gas leaks).
