What's needed to convert Natural Gas oven to propane?

[Kylersk]

My thought was to find an older Natural Gas oven and convert it to propane if it's possible. If it is, what should I look for?

[TTfromBlaine]

your local propane supplier would likely have a conversion kit, you may be better off going to an appliance whole saler and getting something there where you may have a choice of nat/propane or just get the kit there or maybe fishhouse supply.. hope this helps some

Kylersk, My wife and found an old stove for the cabin and wanted to convert it over to LP, when we found a place to do it it would have costed same than if we bought new, we found it point less and bought a used Lp stove...

Hope this helps you out.

Thanks Deepportage... Found a used 30" propane oven today for $30 but the ad was a month old. I called anyways, and sure enough it was gone. Ah well, guess I'll just have to keep an eye out for a used one.

kylersk buddy remember me when you find a gas range. the conversion is very easy. i will stop by and do it for nothing. remember i have done this professionally for many years and am very qualified to do so for you. gimmie a call. if you have lost my number, drop me an e-mail and i will resend it to you. ... paul

i do still have a few connections in the industry and may be able to score you a slightly damages 20" for a great cost. let me know if ya want me to check it out for ya.

Thanks nytelyter! If you wouldnt mind, I'd very much appreciate it.

So, not to hijack, but is the conversion similar/easy/hard for a nat. gas house furnace? I replaced mine in my house and thought I'd look into putting the old one in the garage. I would be doing some basic ducting and venting and running it off a 20lb cylinder only when needed, not all winter long. No need for details here, just curious. Thanks!

I got a nice little natural gas stove from a friend. He said the conversion to LP is very easy and safe.

[nytelyter]

no problems kylersk you have mail.

[Kylersk]

Nytelyter got me a great deal on a scratch and dent new 24" stove. Now to hook it up.. Maybe tomorrow I'll cook a pizza and watch the vikings in the fish house.

Thanks again Nytelyter!

[nytelyter]

As I recall a natural gas stove comes with a LP orfice for the purpose of switching and vis/versa. A plumber would probably just give you the LP orfice.

[harvey lee]

You are correct OldBear unless its a real old one then it may not.

[nytelyter]

if they are not sealed burners it is just a matter of screwing in tight the orfices flipping the cap on the regulator and turning thre small screw behind the oven knob to lp. kylersk prolly had his hooked up by sunday morning and made pizza init while watching the game. my family had an appliance dealership that i had worked in almost all my life. it is an easy conversion. if you all ever have any questions drop me a line. i aint no expert but i can find an answer if i dont know it. ... paul

Yup, Made a PIzza, had the whole family in the house to eat too!
