Converting Weber from LP to Natural Gas

I am considering purchasing a Weber S-310 Grill. I need the natural gas model. I have found the LP model for about $200 less than the Natural Gas model but when I called Weber they said there wasn't a conversion kit and the LP could not be converted. Should I buy the Natural Gas model or is there another solution.

    weber problems--i have a Weber 210 Spirit grill that is hooked up to natural gas and it has worked well for a year or year and a half. All of the sudden it will not light electronically or with a match. The holes in the burners seem to be ok. I put in another battery and still no luck. What should I do next?

On the weber model you need to purchase the natural gas model. It will cost you alot more to buy all parts needed to convert. Weber doesnt want you to convert do to safety reasons. This is why they will only tell you you can't convert. Buy the right grill and save yourself a headache.

I agree with Frank. If you have not purchased one yet, then spend the extra to get the one you want.

It will cost more to buy official parts and it will VOID your warranty.

Converting a natural gas Webber genesis bbq to propane. Can you buy a kit to convert?

Hello, Kevin -

Do you mean a Weber (not Webber) Genisis grill? If so . . . see the information from the Weber grill company regarding the conversion of a natural gas grill to propane here:

https://consumer-care.weber.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001730474-How-can-I-convert-my-grill-from-liquid-propane-LP-to-natural-gas-NG-or-vice-versa-


Bottom line:
The Weber company does not recommend it and does not provide a conversion kit.

Best wishes.

Do they have coversion kits for webber summit silver grills lp to natural

eber does not sell conversion kits for any of their gas grills.Nor, do they recommend converting them, as a matter of safety. Each grill whether Natural Gas or Propane is tested and approved for that specific gas type.With Weber grills,as with many other brands, there's more to converting the grill from one gas type to another, than just changing the burner orifices. It also requires changing all the burners, because their venturi valves (air intake) are not adjustable.

Hope this helps you and thank you for choosing FixYa.

Where can i purchase a weber spirit conversion kit?

Weber no longer offers or support conversion kits. If you do any conversion it will VOID you warranty!

That said, if you can find the parts online for the version of your grill you can convert it yourself if you are mechanically inclined.

You will need to change the JETS and the GAS REGULATOR. Unfortunately they do not sell official Weber Gas Jets alone. You will have to buy the complete Manifold, valves and all as well as the Regulator...

Make sure you are comfortable with all of this... Leak testing etc...

You may have luck finding parts at:

Need to convert our Q300 propane grill to natural gas. Do you sell conversion kits?

Unfortunately, Weber grills are not convertible from one gas type to another. There are no conversion kits available for your model or any Weber model gas grill.

To confirm this, go to the following link and on page 2 under Warnings, last paragraph, left hand column, you can confirm this, if you like.

http://help.weber.com/manuals/pdf_files_2011/Gas/Weber%20Q/Q300320_OwnersGuide_41060_021011.pdf


The only advantage to converting it to Natural Gas is not having to refill the grill tank. The downside, is that you will loose the heating capability that Propane has. It burns cleaner and hotter than Natural gas, in an outdoor environment.

Hope this helped you. Happy Grilling!!

Can a weber spirit e210 natural gas grill be converted to LP gas? I won the grill but don't have natural gas at my home

Weber sells conversion kits. Basically, you need a new regulator and manifold to accommodate LP instead of the existing regulator/manifold setup for natural gas. Unfortunately, Weber does not sell their parts online. Their parts phone # is: 877-731-8081

Where do i find propane to natural gas conversion kit for weber spirit e310 gril

Apparently, Weber does not make a conversion kit to convert the grill from propane or from natural gas to propane. According to the Owners Manual - "Liquid propane gas is not natural gas. The conversion or attempted use of natural gas in a liquid propane unit or liquid propane
gas in a natural gas unit is dangerous and will void your warranty." (From Page # 3 of the Owners Manual)

See below link.
