A Natural Gas Orifice is Larger.
No, the orifices are sized different between Natural Gas and Propane as their properties are different. Gas Code book has the proper orifice sizes required for each appliance and their BTU's.
Get a certified technician to work on gas. He will have to change the orifice, possibly the gas valve.
Change out the gas flow orifice size to propane and adjust the gas valve.
A supply house such as johnstone. Take all information of the furnace and old orifice with you and show them what you need.

you cannot do this because a natural gas orifice is larger than a propane orifice. you can make a propane jet work for a natural gas jet simply by drilling it approx. 210 % you must buy new jets. usually the company that made you appliance will sell the jet kits for you! HOPE THIS HELPS YOU! GOOD LUCK.
yes

Assuming the following typical conditions:natural gas manifold pressure is 3.5" w.c.propane manifold pressure is 10" w.c.natural gas and propane specific gravities are 0.6 and 1.52 relative to airnatural gas and propane energies per cubic foot are 1038 and 2516 BTUyour orifice coefficients are the samethen the propane orifice diameter should be 0.623 times the natural gas orifice diameter.

Conversion of Natural to PropaneYes you can. I purchased a new dryer and needed it to be propane ready...you need to get the proper oriface (which lets the gas in to the burners) changed out. Natural gas oriface has a larger hole than a propane orifice. Check with your local H. V. A. C. companies or with your gas company.AnswerYes you can, but whether you should is another matter. I purchased a new dryer and needed it to be propane ready...you need to get the proper orifice (which lets the gas in to the burners) changed out. Natural gas orifice has a larger hole than a propane orifice. In addition, the regulator must be modified. It may involve flipping an insert under the cap (typical of stoves) or it may require conversion parts packed in the conversion kit (order one specific to your drier). This regulator is part of the piping within the back of the drier. Incidentally, conversion orifice(s) should be included with the drier and screwed to the body in a clip. When you change it over and label the equipment as converted to propane, put the old natural gas orifice in the clip and screw it back onto the body. Put the instructions in a paper envelope and tape to the outside of the body of the drier.Your local gas plumber knows the routine.Check with your local H. V. A. C. companies or with your gas company.
Oder the part from the company, a different orifice
Yes, though you may have to change the orifice to accommodate propane rather than the natural gas.
LP and Natural Gas burners usually have a different orifice size, due to different heat values between the two fuels. Check with your local gas service company, and see if the orifice (that's the part with the tiny hole in it) can be changed on your logs.
