CONVERTING THE APPLIANCE FROM LP TO
NATURAL GAS OR NATURAL GAS TO LP
The conversion of this appliance from one gas to
another must be carried out by an authorized
service provider.
1. Disconnect power to unit and shut off gas supply.
2. Remove window frame assembly.
3. Carefully remove the logs & lava rock material.
4. Remove the screws that are holding the burner
housing assembly in place.
5. Remove the burner housing assembly. Depending
on the model of the appliance you may have to
loosen the pilot bracket retaining screw/nut to allow
the pilot and bracket assembly to tilt and give
enough clearance to remove the burner housing
assembly.
6. Remove the main burner orifice and replace it with
the orifice supplied in the conversion kit.
7. SIT top Convertible Pilot
Gently lift off the pilot hood from the pilot. (Do not
remove the spring clip holding the hood in place).
Using a 5/32" Allen key, unscrew the exposed
orifice. Insert the new orifice supplied in the kit, do
not over tighten the orifice. Replace the pilot hood
ensuring the index tab aligns with the notch on the
hood.
8. PSE Pilot
Using a suitable wrench on the hexagonal body,
unscrew the pilot hood assembly from the pilot, do
not twist the hood itself. Remove the orifice and
replace it with the new orifice supplied in the kit.
Refit the pilot hood assembly. Do not over-tighten
the pilot hood. The hood must return to its original
alignment. Take care not to damage the thermocou-
ple, thermopile or igniter.

central regulator cap from the "Hi - Lo" knob on
the valve.
b) Unscrew the exposed conversion screw.

with a soap solution, replace the window frame
assembly. Fire up the unit, check for flame impinge-
ment on the logs, adjusting them if necessary.
