Can the EF1000iS be converted to run on propane? If so, what conversion kit do you recommend?

These can be converted to propane. We currently do not offer the kit to do so.

it is designed to work on propane when used with a 0-30 PSI variable regulator. It might be possible to change out the orifice to convert it but that is beyond my understanding.

Not right out of the box, it can't be converted. I don't know if you can buy the appropriate connections, but after using the grill, I wouldn't waste my time or money trying. It's really best for hot dogs or hamburgers. It's not that easy or great for steak or anything bigger. The small propane tanks are ample for what this grill is best for.

Yes. It can use either propane or natural gas. My unit came ready for propane but changing fuel type was a simple procedure. It works well -- heats both floors of my two story home.

This kit is used to convert the propane model to a natural gas model. It would be required regardless if the unit was on wheels or built-in.

Kathleen, I have one of those working on natural gas and it works like a charm! You should have or buy the propane version and it will run on any tank, but if you need to run it on full for an extended time, I would recommend getting a larger tank. If it's a small room however, it is probably sufficient to run it on a low setting and then a small propane tank will most likely last quite a while. So, in a nutshell, it depends... Sorry, that's the best answer I can give you. Good luck and hope you're staying warm.

No. Sorry. I bought a gas generator by mistake. I called the Company and they told me that none of their generators can be converted.

I am not 100% sure but most propane operated equipment can be changed by using a different type of intake adapter. I would get with your local gas company and I am sure they have an adapter to use. I know they can take a stove from natural gas to propane so it should be the same principle but just in reverse.

I am not a plumber, but it might be able to be converted if you can get the correct orifice. I think propane's are smaller than NG. Best to ask a plumber. Good luck!

Almost any propane appliance is convertable to gas. You simply have to re-jet the orifice to an appropriate larger size, as natural gas burns at a slightly cooler temperature than propane. It is possible to drill out an orifice to a larger size, or you can check with your gas supplier to see if they offer this service. An appliance repairman might do this but the cost should be considered. Consult your friends and family and see if anyone you know will do you a favor, or check craigslist for appliance guys for a quote. I would google it and see the size conversion and drill out the orifice that came with the unit, but I am a blacksmith and therefor un-afraid of anything.

It only runs on Propane. There are after market conversion kits. I don't know if they'll work on this unit, you'll have to research that. I have 5 20lb propane tanks. It got me through almost 2 weeks of no power during super storm Sandy last year. I went to home depot once for tank exchange.

My best answer is that the H100ID is Natural gas whereas the H100IDPI is for Propane, which is what I have for heat. I am not sure about the inputs and out puts, but I say it is the same.

I believe there is a separate propane version sold, at least for some tankless water heaters. Just search for propane ones. I doubt that a natural gas version can be converted. I know there are no directions included on how to do it.

According to weber, no.http://help.weber.com/faqs/5/can-i-convert-my-grill-to-run-on-a-different-fuel-typeThere could be 3rd party conversion kits available, but i do not know of any specifically.

I don't believe so. It would probably be easier seeing if some retailer will simply swap it out for you. The natural gas units are usually about $20 more expensive than the propane units.

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!

Any grill can be converted from propane to natural gas, by removing the regulator, and either changing out or drilling out the orifices. Of course, you will probably also need an adapter for the inlet pipe. If you do some research, it will cost you about 15 bucks to convert this.
