Information regarding LPG/NG compatibility our appliances

So after receiving the lovely news of not having natural gas at our block till September 2015, I decided to do some more research regarding our appliances and their compatibility with LPG/NG.

Porter Davis told us that none of our appliances would be able to change over from LPG --> NG after hand over. Boy were they wrong. Here is section of the email I sent to PD today:

  • Rinnai Infinity 26
Confirmed by the manufacturer that it is LPG --> Natural Gas convertible. Part number for the kit is: 92099311
  • Blanco BFD9058FX
Confirmed on the manufactures website that it can be converted to natural gas even if order in LPG originally. Please see manual attached page 29. Also here is a screen shot.

  • Brivis Ducted heating HX30i
Available in LPG and confirmed by manufacturer that there is a conversion kit from NG --> LPG. Part no. B061776


Surprise, surprise. I have contacted Porter Davis and asked them to review this information and install LPG appliances to our home as well as the provision for some LPG bottles. The gas company has agreed to cover the cost of the conversion back to Natural Gas for all our appliances.

Thanks for reading.
