Hey guys. What is needed to convert my natural gas burner to propane? I just bought a new house in the country that is on propane, so I have to either convert my burner or go electric. Will I need to change the jets? I use a ball valve as my regulator currently, that shouldn't need changed...right? The burner I have is below with half the jets plugged. Thanks for your help.

I would be careful pumping propane through that burner -- it might send you to outer space. I am pretty sure they are made specifically for propane. Just make sure you do your research before swapping fuel sources.
 
Each jet has it's own orifice. Your NG jets are to big for propane. All the jets you want to use will need to be replaced with propane ones. Probably cheaper to get a propane burner.
