The LP Orifice Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas ranges. It contains a set of five orifices designed specifically for use with liquid propane (LP) gas. Note: For the oven orifices, on some models they are adjustable and some they are not. Refer to parts list for your model when oven orifices are needed. LP orifice kit includes 5 orifices.

Causes of a bad LP Orifice Kit may stem from incorrect orifice size for the specific LP gas supply, wear or damage to the orifices over time, or improper installation.

Symptoms of needing to replace the LP Orifice Kit can include:

  • Uneven heating or incomplete combustion of the burners
  • Yellow or flickering flames instead of a steady blue flame
  • Reduced cooking performance or inefficient heating

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

Nick for Model Number WFG715H0ES0

I was hoping someone might be able to help me out getting the conversion kit for this range. I have purchased it used and it was for natural gas. I will be using propane at its new home. So I understand I need the kit for the 5 burners. What is the exact part number for that as I tend to find many options when searching. Also, is there anything else I need for the stove portion (i.e., bake, broil, etc.) or is that something that just gets adjusted? Thank you

1 Answer

Nick, For the top surface burners, you will need to get conversion kit part number [WPW10170516], and for the bake and broil you will need part number W11087486.

Jodie, There is not a natural gas orifice kit and you will need to get each orifice for the top which will be left front W11690133, left rear W10756981, right front W10821182, right rear W11752198, and center W10256129. For the oven, you would loosen the orifices 1 1/2 to 2 turns and close the air shutter to 3/4 of the way open.
