Fuel Conversion
Converting the stove between natural gas (NG) and propane
(LP) can be accomplished by either changing the cassette
(valve and pilot assembly) or installing a conversion kit
(regulator, burner orifice and repositioning the slide orifice
of the pilot). Only a qualified service technician should
perform the conversion.
Conversion Kit
Please see instructions provided with conversion kit.
