I have a Comfort Glow 26k btu wall mount radiant heater ( that has legs and is
now free standing) that I use at Christmas to warm my deck during gatherings.
The deck is screened and wrapped in poly and with the heater it will stay
around 65-70 inside at 35-40 outside... good enough for the smokers and the
folks that are tired of the crowd.
Every year I drag it to the deck with a couple tanks of propane and every
year I drag it back in storage... 40 bucks lighter for the propane. As I set
up this year I finally realized that I had an unlimited supply of nat gas 10
feet away at the gas grill... I'm about to become a convert !
Checking with the mfg, they say NO CONVERSION on this heater. Not one to be
dissuaded by technical knowledge, common sense and other hokum, I'm on a quest
to convert...
Anyone got any ideas ??? I haven't taken it apart yet... it has five blocks
that are lit as the control knob is turned up (low, med, high... 1 block,3
block, 5 block respectively) I would think a orifice change (if it's
removable) and maybe a gas valve (if it has one). Anybody see how this can
blow up in my face ???
I'm open to all conversations... I'm not the best gas guru, but I can make a
leak free joint !
thanks
John
