Procedure to Convert Fireplace for LP Gas
This fireplace arrives from the factory ready to burn natural gas. If you intend to burn LP gas, it is highly recommended that you
convert this fireplace and its pressure regulator, pilot natural gas/LP clip position and burner orifices prior to placing this
fireplace in its fireplace cavity.
Follow the step below to prepare this fireplace for conversion to LP gas:
1. Shut off the gas supply to the valve and shut down the electric supply.
Note: Be careful when removing or tightening the screw on the pressure regulator. Care must be taken to ensure a proper seal
when tightened. Using a ¼" Hex Driver, remove 2 screws that secure the Rear and Front burners to the Burner Airbox.
2. Lift Up and remove Front Burner.
3. Loosen Front Burner Air Shutter Screw and rotate air shutter open ¼" minimum. Set burner aside.
4. Slide Rear Burner to the right about 2" and lift up and remove from Firebox.
5. You will now be able to access the burner orifices, which are located inside the air shutter boxes.
6. Using a ½" deep well socket wrench, remove front and rear orifices. When removing and installing the orifices be sure to use a
wrench to keep the fitting the orifice screws onto from rotating.
7. Thread a new 3/64" orifice on both the front and rear orifice mounting brass fittings. Tighten down the orifices.
