LP Conversion Procedure

1.Disconnect power to the unit and shut off the gas supply.

2.Remove window frame assembly.

3.Carefully remove the logs & lava rock material.

4.Remove the screws that are holding the burner housing in place.

5.Remove the burner housing assembly. Depending on the model of the appliance you may have to loosen the pilot bracket retaining screw/nut to allow the pilot and bracket assembly to tilt and give enough clearance to remove the burner housing assembly.

6.Remove the main burner orifice and replace it with the orifice supplied in the conversion kit.

7.Gently lift off the pilot hood from the pilot. (Do not remove the spring clip holding the hood in place). Using a correctly sized Allen key unscrew the exposed orifice. Insert the new orifice supplied in the kit, do not over tighten the orifice. Replace the pilot hood ensuring the index tab aligns with the notch on the hood.

8.The Honeywell valve (Fig. 41) fitted to this unit is suitable for use with LP or Natural Gas. It is con- verted to the required gas application by the instal- lation of a color coded “conversion screw”.

a)Using a suitable small screwdriver lift out the central regulator cap from the “Hi/Lo” knob on the valve.

b)Unscrew the exposed conversion screw.

c)Insert the new color coded conversion screw. Do not over-tighten the screw, it must be finger tight.

d)Refit the regulator cap.

e)Mount conversion label supplied with conver- sion screw to valve in a visible position.

8.Reassemble the fireplace in the reverse order, except for the window frame assembly. Leave this off until after the unit has been checked for leaks and the gas supply has been bled.

9.After bleeding the gas line and checking for leaks with a soap solution, replace the window frame assembly. Fire up the unit, check for flame impinge- ment on the logs, adjusting them if necessary. Check the manifold and supply pressures against the appliance specifications.

Air Shutter Setting

The air shutter is factory set at 50% open for natural gas (or if converting back to natural gas).

The air shutter setting for propane gas is fully open when field converted.

The procedure for converting from one gas to another is the same regardless of the initial gas used. The only variation is in the orifice-sizes and component part numbers.

NOTE: When converting this unit to LP, keep all parts removed in case you need to convert back to natural gas.
