Converting Gas Control from Natural Gas to LP Gas (or LP Gas to Natural Gas)
WARNING
Fire Or Explosion Hazard.
Can cause property damage, severe injury or death.
1.Do not attempt to convert
2.Always change the main and pilot burner orifices when converting from natural to LP gas or from LP to natural gas. Carefully follow appliance manufacturer specifications and instructions to assure proper appliance conversion.
3.Gas controls are
use a gas control set for natural (manufactured) gas on LP gas, or a gas control set for LP gas on natural (manufactured) gas.
Controls with standard,
Convertible Pressure Regulators
Controls with suffix letter R are convertible pressure regulator models. They can be converted from natural gas to LP gas or from LP gas to natural gas without a conversion kit.
Before converting the control from one gas to another, check the control label and the appliance manufacturer’s rating plate to determine if the pressure regulator setting (factory set) will meet the appliance manifold requirements after conversion.
NOTE: Convertible pressure regulator models (suffix letter R) do not have
If the factory pressure regulator setting meets the appliance manifold requirement, convert the control as follows:
1.Remove the pressure regulator cap, Fig. 1.
2.Invert the cap so that the letters appear that represent the gas type appropriate for the appliance. NAT for natural manufactured gas, LP for liquid petroleum gas.
3.Replace the cap and tighten firmly.
