Converting your propane grill to natural gas might just be the best backyard BBQ upgrade you’ve never done. No more swapping tanks, no more last-minute refills—and a serious reduction in grilling stress.

If you’ve ever hosted a cookout and nervously watched the flame flicker as you near the end of a propane tank, you’ve experienced FORO: Fear of Running Out. Let’s eliminate it—for good.


âś… Why Convert to Natural Gas?

🔥 The Benefits:

  • No more refilling propane tanks
  • No more storing full and empty tanks
  • No more FORO when cooking for a crowd or squeezing in a quick weeknight dinner
  • Unlimited fuel — never run out mid-burger
  • Lower long-term cost compared to propane
  • Cleaner-burning and eco-friendlier
  • It was “the best thing I’ve ever done for my gas grill.”

🔍 Is Your Grill Convertible?

Before you grab a wrench, make sure your grill is eligible:

  • Check the manual for “dual fuel” or “convertible” labeling
  • Some brands like Weber, Char-Broil, and Napoleon offer conversion kits
  • Newer grills may not be convertible due to regulations—check with the manufacturer


🧰 What You’ll Need

To do it right and safe, pick up:

  • A brand-specific natural gas conversion kit
  • A timer valve — this adds a layer of safety by ensuring the gas shuts off after a set time
  • Quick-connect gas fittings and a flexible hose for easy detachment and cleaning
  • A natural gas line with a shutoff valve (consult a licensed plumber if needed)

💡 Most kits cost between $50–$150, and the flexibility/safety upgrades are worth the investment.


đź›  Step-by-Step Installation Overview

⚠️ Always shut off gas at the main before working. If you’re unsure, hire a professional.

  1. Remove propane regulator and burner orifices
  2. Install natural gas-compatible orifices and fittings
  3. Connect the grill to your home gas line using a flexible quick-connect hose
  4. Test all connections for leaks with soapy water
  5. Light it up and look for a clean blue flame (adjust air shutters if needed)

🚀 Real-World Benefits

After converting your grill:

  • It’s always ready to go
  • You’ll never cancel dinner plans because of a dead tank
  • You’ll feel safer and more confident with the timer shutoff valve in place
  • Cleanup and seasonal disconnects are easier with quick-connect hoses

Whether it’s a weekend BBQ party or a quick Tuesday night sear, you’ll never look back.
