All Cal Heat grills are manufactured as standard liquid propane (LP) grills and can be converted to burn 
natural gas (NG). There are two steps required to convert a grill from LP to NG. 

You must perform 

both steps.

 

Step 1: Switching the regulator behind the grill

 

Step 2: Changing the burner orifices

You will need some or all of the fittings (depending 

on  the  size  of  the  grill  or  cart)  contained  in 

the  conversion  kit  provided  with  the  grill.  The 

conversion  kit  contains  orifices  to  convert  five 

main  burners,  two  small  rear  infrared  burners, 

one large infrared burner, and two side burners. 

You will not need all of the parts in the kit.
Before you begin, make certain the LP gas source 

has been disconnected from the grill. If you have 

a cart, you do not need to remove the grill from 

the cart.

To gain access to the NG regulator:

For grills, tilt the grill forward.

• 

For barbecue carts, remove the back cover.

• 

Step 1: Switching the regulator behind the grill

The regulator in the image below has been removed from a grill to illustrate this 

procedure.

Remove the LP gas line.

1. 

Remove the cap fitting from the end of the NG gas regulator.

2. 

Place the cap fitting over the LP gas inlet.

3. 

Insert the 3/4” flared in the NG gas regulator.

4. 

Converting from LP to NG

WARNING!  You  must  have  an  authorized  service  technician  perform  this 

procedure. If these instructions are not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may 

result  causing  property  damage,  personal  injury  or  loss  of  life .  Lloyd’s  Material 

Supply (L .M .S .) will not be held responsible for an improperly converted gas grill .

You will need:

13mm open end 

• 

wrench

3/4” flared fitting

• 

Pipe compound

•
