IMPORTANT: Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution. DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING. 

 

              

 

 

 

Caution

The gas supply shall be shut off prior to disconnecting the electrical power, before proceeding with the conversion. 

 

1. The Burner Tube must be removed from the Burner Pan Assembly (See 

Burner Tube Removal

). Adjust the Air Shutter to the correct Primary Air 

setting as specified in the manual or on the label plate. To adjust the 

Primary Air setting, loosen screw on the side of the Air Shutter and rotate 

to the correct opening using a drill bit or tape measure. Retighten screw.  

2. Remove the Main Orifice using a ½” wrench and replace with the new 

Conversion Orifice which came with the Conversion Kit. 

3. Replace the Burner Tube. Install the new Pilot Orifice (See 

Pilot 

Conversion

) and Hi/Lo valve regulator by following instructions supplied 

with the Conversion Kit. 

 

Refer to “Gas Specifications Chart” for inlet pressures and input ratings. Clock meter to verify input rate. Place conversion label as 

close to converted gas control as possible. Refer to lighting instructions to verify the normal operating sequence of the ignition 

system. 

  - WARNING -  

This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualified service agency in accordance with the manufacturer's 

instructions and all applicable codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. If the information 

in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of carbon monoxide may result 

causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life. The qualified service agency is responsible for the 

proper installation of this kit. The installation is not proper and complete until the operation of the converted 

appliance is checked as specified in the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the kit.
