5. FIREPLACE CONVERSION
To convert your propane gas fireplace to natural gas or vice versa, you need to contact your supplier to
get the
SmartCase
®
required for the desired conversion.
5.1. CHANGING THE
SMARTCASE
®
If a component of the
SmartCase
®
is broken, it is strongly recommended to completely remove the
SmartCase
®
for easier handling. For more complex problems, simply replace the
SmartCase
®
by a new one.
Open the door as described in section 8.3.1.
Remove the burner as described in section 3.6
Disconnect the
SmartCase
®
plug located on the
electrical box made of two power outlets; on the
left of the
SmartCase
®
.
Close the manual gas valve.
Unscrew the gas intake pipe from the
SmartCase
®
.
Unscrew the four screws from the
SmartCase
®
as
illustrated in figure 5.1.
Then carefully remove the
SmartCase
®
from the
fireplace.
Note:
It is strongly recommended to plan for a 12 in. minimum additional length of gas pipe inside the
fireplace (under the combustion chamber) to make
SmartCase
®
maintenance easier. This way, the
technician will not have to disconnect the gas supply to work on the
SmartCase
®
.
CAUTION
You can make the fireplace less powerful (reduce the number of BTUs), but you
cannot
make it
more powerful due to the type of glass used for this fireplace.
Any changes to your fireplace must be performed by a certified professional.
It is forbidden to use damaged replacement parts or replacement parts not authorized by JA Roby.
