Prepare for propane operation
Do not apply the following to conversion of a
boiler already installed and connected to gas
supply. For a boiler already installed, you must
turn off gas supply, turn off power and allow
boiler to cool before proceeding. You must also
completely test the boiler after conversion to
verify performance as described under “Startup,”
Section 6 of this manual. See separate natural
to propane conversion instructions for
conversion of an existing boiler.
You must install the propane orifice to fire the
Ultra boiler on propane. Verify when installing
that the orifice size marking matches boiler
size. Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury, death or substantial property
damage.

the boiler size. Place orifice in the black rubber
grommet in the side of the gas valve and secure in
valve (Figure 2a).

TORX screws securing valve to venturi. Reconnect
