When converting a Dearborn heater from propane to natural gas, the orifice will need to be larger to allow for the different gas flow rates. You may also need to adjust the air mixture to ensure proper combustion. It's always best to consult the manufacturer's instructions or a professional to ensure the conversion is done safely and effectively. Remember, mistakes are just happy accidents waiting to be fixed!
yes
You have the change the orifice and the regulator (because LP and Natural gas are at a diffrent pressure). I've used adaptors from a camping suppy store. this is not totally true. If you look at the side of the regulator, it might have a marking on it that says LP/NG. This is an auto adjust on the regulator that you can use a screwdriver to change from one to the other. However if you don't have the markings then it will need to be changed.
It is best to contact the appliance manufacturer for correct orifice size when converting from one type of gas to another.
Converting a natural gas space heater to propane involves replacing the gas orifices, adjusting the air-to-fuel ratio, and installing a regulator designed for propane. It is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and have a professional technician perform the conversion to ensure proper and safe operation of the heater.
An orifice is a natural opening.
Yes, That is a must do.
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.

Propane orifice openings are generally larger than natural gas orifices. This is because natural gas has a lower pressure than propane, so larger orifices are needed to allow more gas to flow through to achieve the same heat output.

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.
No, natural gas and propane orifices are not interchangeable. Natural gas orifices are larger than propane orifices due to the different properties of the gases. Using a propane orifice with natural gas can lead to incomplete combustion and potential safety hazards.
