Empire Shop Heater question

[petethekiller]

I was given an Empire Shop Heater, it's pretty large and would hang from the ceiling. At first glance it would look like a Modine but it is in face an Empire Heater. The heater is set up to run on Natural gas but I use propane, would it be worth my while trying to convert it to propane? If so how would I go about doing so?

Thanks

I'm not sure but you can convert a regular NG home heater to propane with a simple kit, so I'd bet they offer a kit if they are still in business.

There should be a info tag on your unit , model , serial , btu etc. take that info to heating service company and have them get you a l.p kit or you may be able to order one on the net.
