PROPANE/LP GAS CONVERSION

To convert to propane/LP gas, the regulator pres-
sure must be reset also the burner inlet fitting
and pilot orifice must be replaced. The propane/
LP burner inlet fitting is supplied with the orifice
installed for a 24" log set. If you have an 18" or 30"
set, you must change this orifice also.

Burner Inlet Fitting
1. Remove the burner inlet fitting from the

burner pan assembly. DO NOT remove
the orifice from this fitting. The propane/
LP burner inlet fitting is included in the
hardware kit (see Figure 11).

2. Be sure to use the correct orifice for your

appliance. The hardware kit included with
this appliance contains three orifices with
a cone-like shape. If you have an 18" set,
the orifice for the burner inlet fitting is red;
for a 30" set, it is black. If you have a 24"
log set, the orifice is orange.

3. For an 18" or 30" set, use a 10 mm socket

or nut driver to install the orifice from the
propane/LP burner inlet fitting. Choose
the correct orifice for your log set size and
install using thread sealant.

4. Using thread sealant (resistant to the action of

propane/LP gas) on larger end of fitting, screw
the burner inlet fitting through hole and into
burner manifold. Tighten using a wrench.

5 . Follow steps 3 through 13 under Natural

Gas Installation, page 5.
