I purchase a Hearthstone Tucson which was natural gas and coverted to LP , I changed the sit valve , pilot asm and main orifice to a #55. After I start the stove within 20 mins we are having burning eyes. I am wondering if unburnt lp is getting in the air ? Thoughts , see any issues ? Thanks
 
A house-vented stove will burn ANYTHING that is in the air inside your home.
Pet dander. Dust. Aerosol sprays. Human hairs. One of those items could be what's
causing your eye discomfort. I doubt it's LP.
