Can this be converted to natural gas?
165246
Almost any propane appliance is convertable to gas. You simply have to re-jet the orifice to an appropriate larger size, as natural gas burns at a slightly cooler temperature than propane. It is possible to drill out an orifice to a larger size, or you can check with your gas supplier to see if they offer this service. An appliance repairman might do this but the cost should be considered. Consult your friends and family and see if anyone you know will do you a favor, or check craigslist for appliance guys for a quote. I would google it and see the size conversion and drill out the orifice that came with the unit, but I am a blacksmith and therefor un-afraid of anything.

I would think so only if the orfice is changed to nat gas. Take the burner to your gas company and they will get you an orfice.

Yes - If you go to a gas fitter he can change the jet size for you to burn natural gas.

I not sure the requirements are for natural gas but i bought these burners and never use them on pro pain as the attached regulator suggested instead i used them on liquid petroleum sold by Shell/Sol/Rubis/Texaco as available in Saint Lucia, it worked perfectly. I am 100% satisfied.

I am not a plumber, but it might be able to be converted if you can get the correct orifice. I think propane's are smaller than NG. Best to ask a plumber. Good luck!

I do not see why not. When the gas line is disconnected no gas remains in the lines. I am very satisfied with the reliability of this machine. There is only one drawback to this generator. It is a little more louder than most.

Yes this can be converted to nat gas by changing the orifice and regulator.

No natural gas converter. Just the standard propane hook up. There is a scale that you hang the propane tank on. This will help you from having to guess how much fuel is left.

I would contact the manufacturer (http://www.championpowerequipment.com/) and ask them if it is financially feasible or doable. You don't want to spend a fortune converting this generator if you can buy a natural gas one for the same price. And if you go down this road, be prepared for lots of government red tape. You will definitely need a building permit and have everything check out by a licensed electrician and a plumber - which means more money. Natural gas would make more sense than gasoline, but it comes with a very high initial price.

Not the way it comes, it's propane. But I do believe they have conversion kits to make it natural gas.

oops, you did ask about natural gas. Sorry, we used propane, no natural gas company up here. But it is a 1/2 pipe.

The unit I have runs on the gas piped into my home by the gas company. I call this natural gas, so yes. If you mean some other source of gas I can't say what will work or not. By the way, it works very well and my summer gas bill was cut in half.

Mine came with a hook up for propane tank. I can't say if you can use natural gas or not.

No. Sorry. I bought a gas generator by mistake. I called the Company and they told me that none of their generators can be converted.

Yes, but have your local gas supplier do it. The parts to convert it is even on the back side of the range in a steel box! We couldn't find it at first, but all the parts were there! We love our range! Works great!

I don't know if the burner is rated for natural gas. You would need a completely different regulator as well.

When I purchased my unit there were both LPG & natural gas units available. I initially ordered the LPG model and very soon saw that it would require constant trips to buy refills and they would cost a ton more than using natural gas, which I use to heat my home so I returned it for the unit shown. I know that the LPG model could not be converted to natural gas. I have no knowledge either way of conversion from natural gas to LPG for this unit. I am sure that Kozy World customer service could tell you what options are available.

I believe there is a separate propane version sold, at least for some tankless water heaters. Just search for propane ones. I doubt that a natural gas version can be converted. I know there are no directions included on how to do it.

You can hook it to the big propane tank with the converter hose, not included of course. I bought the hose but have not used it because i am using up the several small cannisters that I already have. I don't know about hooking it to a fixed natural gas line.

Not directly, but there are attachments you can get that will regulate natural gas for propane applications, I imagine those would work.
