Can I convert my griddle to Natural Gas?
We do offer a natural gas conversion kit for our 28” and 36” units, excluding the units listed in the chart below and our Omnivore griddle series. Culinary and Culinary Pro series griddles*, in addition to propane air fryer griddles**, are not optimized for natural gas conversion. For information on converting a 17" or 22" Tabletop Griddle.
To convert to natural gas, you will need to switch the orifices in your valves with the given orifices that are the proper size for natural gas, as well as switch out your regulator with the provided natural gas hose. Please make sure to be gentle when removing and replacing your orifices to avoid stripping out your valves. Here is a video explaining how to install the kit on your griddle.
You can find our natural gas conversion kit here.

*Culinary Collection griddles are not compatible with the provided orifice wrench. However, the provided replacement orifices in the kit are compatible with Culinary Collection Griddles. To convert these griddles to natural gas, it is necessary to source a compatible orifice wrench.
**Please be aware that the kit is not optimized for our propane AirFryer griddles. Because they require a larger amount of propane than our other products, natural gas isn’t able to provide a high enough pressure to efficiently run the air fryers and griddle, which can result in longer cook times and cooler temperatures.
Natural Gas Requirements:
For optimal performance, our natural gas conversion kit requires a pressure of 7 inches of water column at the inlet for the appliance. Please see a natural gas professional to ensure your propane line is regulated to the correct pressure.
