Has anybody converted this to LPG? Wondering how that went and if it still has plenty of BTU's?

It comes with the nozzles. My installer changed them out in about 15 minutes.

Not the way it comes, it's propane. But I do believe they have conversion kits to make it natural gas.

NG takes a different fuel to air ratio then LPG you would have to make some kind of modification to the carburetor. This generator has an unregulated voltage output and is the worst product I have ever bought from Amazon. I got my money back.

Kevin, I have the same question as I have natural gas already running my grill. If you get a reply, would you please email me @ BigDog58@gmail.com? Thanks and good luck, Big Dog

This is a nice pit...not sure if it can be converted to natural gas...have you tried contacting the manufacturer? Good luck.

Was planning on switching over to a type C converter myself which will burn both gas and propane. Check on you tube for vid's doing swap over.

I took a look and nowhere is there a mention of BTU rating. However, there is a label on the back side that mentions Gas Consumption and it is 138g/hr with Heat Efficiency of 50%. A great stove for the price. I hope that helps, good luck!

This is propane (L.P.) Only. Can not be converted to Natural Gas. Have to get one set for Natural Gas and then convert the orffices for natural gas. Look for a conversion kit get made for your unit. It may not be able to convert it.

Hi, Good post you have here, and I'm almost ready to go out and buy this Cuisinart bbq grill. About the propane tank filling up thingy: you really don't need to guess anymore about how much gas is left in your tank. At Walmart, H. Depot, Harbor Freight, etc. you can get a small gauge hookup that you just quickly screw into your tank-to-grill hoses, and just keep tabs on the amount of gas you have left by looking at the glass gauge. I think it's around $15-19. Just thought I'd throw that in.

I think it works fine. Put your empty 1# tank in the freezer for 24 hrs. Invert your 20# tank and connect the 1 # with the shnozzle. Open the 20# and let the lpg drain into the the 1#. Give it 5 minutes. I have not actually weighed the refilled can v. a full new can, but it feels just as full.

I use natural gas, and this model is 24,000 btu.Using the thermostat control helps regulate my usage. I use this as a secondary heating source.

While I have not tried a natural gas conversion, Generac's website on its LP portable generators cautions against using natural gas. They say that they don't have conversion kits, and that most codes don't allow portable LP generators to be hooked to a natural gas line. To use natural gas, Generac recommends using a solid mounted home generator.

Never tried butane but propane yes. But at full burn if your propane tank is low it frosts up and you lose some btu's

We have it in our MBR hooked into our natural gas connection that feeds our fireplace. It's been connected for one year with no issues other than the initial burn-off smell that only lasts a day or two.I highly recommend that you have your gas company hook it up. Ours did and they only charged us about $150 for the install of the unit and the hookup and parts. Better Safe than Sorry.

I was lucky enough to have access to a refrigerant vacuum pump and as the system was almost empty I pulled it down to about -30lb and made sure I did not have any measurable leak down over a couple of hours. Filled the system with the 22A and it's been running great for the last couple of months. I would recommend evacuating the system if you can so you don't have two unlike gasses in there.

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

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".
