Yes, Propane burns hotter.
You change the orifice in the burner. Propane and natural gas require different orifice sizes. You should check with your gas or propane supplier, or contact the manufacturer for more detailed information. If you have good information and are a pretty handy individual, you might be able to do the conversion yourself. But, be warned, if you make a mistake, if could be tragic.

Yes, you can buy a gas dryer that is compatible with propane gas by ensuring that it is set up for propane use instead of natural gas. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for converting the dryer to run on propane. Additionally, you may need to purchase a propane conversion kit if one is not included with the dryer.
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.

Unless you are extremely knowledgeable about gas devices, you shouldn't fiddle with them.

this can be done but its not as simply as just hooking it up. you will need to change the manifold which is not always readily available. depending upon the manufacturer of the grill, you will likely need to order an L.P. (Propane) manifold directly from the manufacturer. Most propane distributors will convert natural gas appliances to LP for a modest fee. It is a matter of changing orifice sizes to let less gas into the appliance. Since propane burns about 4 times hotter than gas, an orifice which is about half the diameter is used. We had all of our gas appliances, dryer, stove, BBQ, converted when we moved from a location with natural gas to propane.
you have to change the orifice. propane operates under higher pressure than natural gas thus requiring a smaller orifice. call any place that sells and services gas appliances and i`m sure they can be of help.

you don't
To convert a fireplace from propane to natural gas, you typically need to change the burner orifices, regulator, and possibly the pilot assembly. It's important to consult a professional for this task to ensure it is done safely and correctly. Additionally, you may need to check with local codes and regulations before making the conversion.
To convert a furnace to propane or natural gas, you typically need to replace the burner or jets to accommodate the different fuel type. You may also need to adjust the air mixture and pressure settings to ensure proper combustion. It is recommended to hire a professional HVAC technician to safely and accurately complete the conversion.
