Installer information
Before starting the conversion make sure to shut off the
gas supply to the unit and allow gas stove to cool to room
temperature.
To convert the gas stove from natural gas to propane, a
conversion kit is required. This kit comes with new pilot and
burner orifi ces as well as a new pressure modulator for the
valve.
To switch the pressure modulator, follow the instructions that
are provided with the conversion kit.
To change the orifi ces you are required to remove the mesh and
glass doors, log-set, embers and burner. Please refer to the
appropriate sections of this manual and follow instructions on
how to correctly remove these components.
After removing the components listed in the above paragraph,
you will have access to the burner orifi ce located at the lower
inside rear of the fi rebox. The orifi ce can be removed using a
½” socket. Before installing the new orifi ce, Loctite 567 Thread
Sealant needs to be applied to the threads of the new orifi ce to
ensure a proper seal when installed.
To replace the pilot orifi ce remove the pilot hood which is held
in place by a spring. First remove the spring, and then remove
the hood by pulling it up from the pilot bracket Figure 74. To
remove the existing orifi ce insert a 5/32” or 4mm Allen wrench
into the hexagonal key-way of the orifi ce and rotate counter-
clockwise until free. Insert the new orifi ce using the same
Allen wrench and tighten it until a torque of 9 lbf in (1 Nm) is
achieved. Replace the pilot hood by aligning the tab on the
base of the hood with the slot in the side of the pilot journal,
and push the hood down onto the pilot bracket. Replace the
spring by pushing it onto its seat.
To complete the conversion, the venturi shutter will have to be
adjusted to the correct opening. Please refer to Figure 69 on
page 33 for correct adjustment of venturi.
