Is it possible to convert a propane grill to a natural gas? ?
I want to know if its possible to convert my propane grill to natural gas? I'v heard some people say yes, and some people say no. Some people said yes but I have to replace the actual burner of the grill to make it work, while others say you don't. Its all really confusing, because I see conversion kits online and at home centers, and want to know if I can do it to mine since I have a natural gas nozzle already set up for my back patio. Is this a grill specific thing?
If it helps I have a EvenEmbers 5 Burner Gas Grill (Model No: GAS7540BS)

I used a propane grill hooked to a gas line for YEARS until the stand rusted. Then I bought a new one and a conversion kit that took about 1/2 hour to install. I don't remember how many $ it cost. The "orifices" for nat gas are larger b/c nat gas does NOT burn as hot as propane, so the flame needs to be larger to help out. Nat Gas means you NEVER run out of gas when you're cooking AND it's close to free. (not free, but cheap) Wood / charcoal is best but expensive and a pain in the ***. Propane is good, but expensive and you have to drive to buy it. Nat Gas is SO easy and cheap.
It is POSSIBLE. The primary difference is the size of the holes in the burner the fuel comes out of. MOST burners are designed for one or the other. A few are adjustable. Unless the grill you have was designed to be converted, you would probably need to replace the burner. A conversion kit would have to be made for your specific grill, because not all grills use the same size burner.
according to this sites question an answer section your model can't be converted. It is propane only. In 2 or 3 years when that one rusts out get a webber you won't regret it there worth the extra 100/200 bucks. they last longer an cook better than any other grill.
