Table 16b - Natural Gas Conversion Kits

10.D Gas Conversion

These units can easily be converted from natural to

propane gas or from propane to natural gas in the field.

Some units require the addition of a gas orifice along

with proper gas valve adjustment. Other units require

no additional parts - only proper gas valve adjustment.

Please contact the manufacturer for specific

information regarding the gas conversion of a particular

appliance. If a gas conversion is performed, the unit

must be identified with the appropriate gas labels and

a conversion sticker to allow technicians performing

maintenance in the future to properly identify the type

of gas being used in the appliance.
