Not sure, but DO NOT buy one of these hoses. They don't fit and aren't even original Weber made. They are bootlegged made in China junk. A hardware store will have the hose you want for only a couple dollars more.

This grill is made to use propane gas , not natural gas. You will need to look for a grill that is made to use natural gas. They are a little harder to find, most are made for propane use.

Natural gas has less BTU's than Propane, so you would need to change the oriface on the propane burner to larger, usually HomeDepot or Lowes can help with that

This Weber grill is designed for LP. If one is available it would need a natural gas conversion kit.I think it would be better to look for a grill optimized for natural gas. The gasses work at different pressures and flow rates.

there is some sort of converter hose available. Not sure where to get it though... I suggest calling weber's 1-800 number for assistance. We hook ours up to a full sized propane tank and got a converter for that.

I have no idea, and would refer you to a heating (furnace) contractor, as they deal with both propane and natural gas, and would probably know the answer.

If your grille was purchased as a propane grille (LP), which it likely was, you will need a natural gas conversion kit. Kits usually include the long hose you need as well as a pressure regulator and new jets for each burner. Check with Weber as regulators are sometimes convertible from LP to NG and they will have a kit designed for your grille.

I would also like to know who makes a conversion for this unit. Would be nice to have propane.

This is a necessary conversion to natural gas, comes with a different regulator as well as a orifice for the side burner... Most likely you will additional fittings to connect to the house

Probably not. Most propane powered grills, smokers, etc. require a conversion kit for Natural gas. Lowes sells one for around $34. I think the orifice size would need to be changed as well. An internet search: smoking meat forums would help with that. Good luck. It is a nice smoker.

When I was putting the grill together, I saw that the owners manual gave instructions on how to attach a natural gas line, as well as propane, to the unit. I was not not planning on installing the natural gas option so I did not pay too much attention to that process. I am not sure if one needs to buy any additional parts to get the natural gas option working. Good Luck

I have not connected the heater to natural gas, but I know you have to change the propane gas jets to natural gas jets.

I'm not sure how expensive or how easy it would be to convert an existing propane model to a natural gas one, but they do sell the same model for natural gas. Just search "weber spirit 310 natural gas".

Per the product guide, this grill cannot be converted. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/D1RFC6DJ5MS.pdf Honestly, you could probably send natural gas to it and get it to ignite - it just won't get to 48,000 btus as they claim with propane. My dad has been running natural gas through LP grills for years and never had problems with temperature or ignition. But if you want to be on the safe side, I suggest you find a grill for which they sell a conversion kit.

The grill is designed for propane. I am sure that it could be converted with little cost.

The grill ships as propane and has a conversion kit built into it. Takes about 20 minutes to switch over.

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.
