My father gave me a Jotul DV45 Spirit fireplace insert. He was using in his home, and had it set up for LP gas. I want to use it in my house, and have Natural Gas. I am having problems finding a orifice changeover kit.
Can anybody help me out with this.

Thanks

You should find a Jotul dealer in your area to see if the kits are still available.
Some of the older gas valves aren't manufactured anymore & parts for
them are almost non-existant. The other problem is that everything from
Jotul - at least NOW - comes as an NG burner & has the LP conversion kit
shipped with the appliance. Those that HAVE been converted to LP are generally
not re-converted back to NG & there are some parts from the NG kit that, once
removed, cannot be re-used. Have the model & serial number of the unit available
when you contact the dealer, as Jotul sometimes changes components during the
manufacturing process & the only way to determine what parts go in what unit depend
upon the serial number...
