Modine Heater

I found a good deal on a Modine PA75, only problem is it's natural gas and i have propane. Can it be converted to work with propane? I've searched but haven't come up with much info.

I know the Modine Hot Dawgs can be converted back and forth but not sure on that unit.

I'd find out for sure before I bought it, but I'd say there is a 99% chance it can be converted by changing or brazing and redirlling the burner orifice(s). Propane runs at a higher pressure and will therefore need smaller orifices to meter the correct about of fuel into the burner assembly.

If you can get the numbers off the gas valve I should be able to check and tell ya.

Modines are good units, however they odd in that all the ones I have seen use 120v control voltage instead of 24v. Be careful of that.
