Can you convert it to a natural gas hookup? I don't need it portable. I like the size for my purpose.

I did some research for your great question and I found out that weber does not recommend or sell a kit conversion from propane to natural gas due to high risk factor, and the fact that you need a specialist to make the correct hook up. However, there are vendors that sell conversion kits that will fit in. I suggest if you're going to do that make sure you hire a professional to do this job. You don't want to make unessesary mistakes that could result in a great injury. http://help.weber.com/faqs/5/can-i-convert-my-grill-to-run-on-a-different-fuel-type

Yes, you need to take it to someone who works on gas appliances and have them drill out the orfice in the regulator.

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.

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.

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

Use LP. I am sure you can hook this up to natural gas however you will have to replace all of the valves and burners to support burning natural gas. If you want a natural gas fire system I think it would be cheaper and safer to just buy one instead of converting an LP system.

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

I see only negative replies on the operation of this generator converted to natural gas. My natural gas BBQ is not a stationary appliance and I don't have the need for an embedded generator.

I believe it can be used for natural gas or propane. When installing, follow instructions to prepare heater for natural gas connection. There is a specific way to set up the heater for either fuel source.

I'm not sure if you can or not, but I would surely not recommend it. You generally want to be away from the house when you are frying a turkey, and a natural gas line would most like be right next to the house. Seems like a bad idea to me!

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.

We do not have natural gas in the rural areas in the foothill. I connected my BBQ to an axillary line used for my homes propane heat,and Kitchen stove. The Quick connect and disconnect is on our back Deck for my BBQ.

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

I don't use one with my homes natural gas. You would probably need one if you're using propane

I haven't tried that but if recollection serves me it said there was some kind of conversion kit you could get to use natural gas instead of propane. Sorry I can't be more exact.

Yes - that's exactly what I did. It comes with the nozzle for natural gas, you just need to switch it.

Yes, according to the papers I have it can be run on natural gas. It takes a few modifications.

I ordered mine specifically to have a natural gas connection, if yours didn't or doesn't come with one you can get a conversion kit through Napoleon for around $50 , BTW it is the best grill available in that price range, I use it almost daily!

It can be converted to LP gas but they already sell a unit that will do this. I don't know about "natural" gas, I think it could be with the right person doing it based on their skill level. Better to get one that is ALREADY built to do what you want it to do.

I believe it can be hooked up to a larger propane tank, with the correct adapter. I may do this at some point but the little tanks last a while and they are only about $3.50 each.
