Propane Conversion
Convert a fireplace, insert, or gas log set from natural gas to propane — correct orifices, pressure, and a licensed leak test.
Professional Propane Conversion in Asheville & Western NC
Gas appliances aren't one-fuel-fits-all. Natural gas and propane burn at different pressures and densities, so a fireplace built for one won't run safely on the other until it's properly converted. Steady Flame Fireplaces performs propane conversions across Western North Carolina — reconfiguring a natural-gas fireplace, insert, stove, or log set to run correctly on liquid propane. It comes up when someone relocates an appliance or buys a place beyond the gas mains, where Fairview, Candler, and Brevard run on tank propane.
More Than Swapping an Orifice
A proper conversion is precise work. We install the manufacturer's LP kit, swap the burner and pilot orifices to the smaller propane sizes, dial the manifold pressure to spec, and reset the air shutter so the flame burns clean, not sooty and yellow — then we leak-check and lock-up test the system. Because propane runs at higher pressure and the work touches the gas train, it's licensed: we permit it, follow the manufacturer's listing, and burn-test the appliance. Converted right, your fireplace becomes grid-independent backup heat — what many WNC homes needed after Helene.
