If you have the nat gas orifices they will install them, if not they will go get some that match the size or will drill out yours to the nat gas spec. Appliance repair on Calle Colon 1 block up from the Caraterra will come out. Telephone 766-2256 Actually most any plumber could do it.

bedbug Posted September 14, 2019 Report Share Posted September 14, 2019 You can buy a small adapter that fits the gas intake valve and reduces the amount of gas that can enter. The fireplace can then burn LP gas. They are not expensive. Most plumbers can do the job for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
