Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Orifice (Part Number: OEM13184946)

1 Answer

Audrey, This model does not require a conversion kit and you would just turn the top burners off and open the air shutters on the bottom of the burner, tighten the orifices to where they just bottom out 1 1/2 to 2 turns. For the oven do the same thing and then on the regulator cap you will flip the pin or cap inside from NAT to LP.

Hello Guy, This unit does not require changing the orifices since it has the orifice hoods. This unit is converted by adjustment. To go back to naturaql gas you will use a 1/2 inch wrench to turn the hoods counterclockwise 1 1/2 to 2 turns. Fine tune to minimize yellow tipping of the flames. The air shutters can also be used to adjust the yellow tipping out of the flames. The regulator is converted by flipping the brass nut under the plastic cap. Be sure to flip the plastic cap on the brass nut to keep it clean in case of future conversion. The hood for the bake burner is on the oven valve and is adjusted the same way as the surface orifice hoods are adjusted. The broil hood is at the base of the broil burner and is adjusted the same way also.

Hello Joe! Your model is self adjustable. You'll need to adjust the orifices two full rounds ccw and adjust the burner flame until its blue. Thanks.

Hello Jennifer. They do not list the conversions in the owners manual of the unit. Conversion is suppose to be done by a certified gas technician. They will flip the regulator of the unit from natural to LP, and will tighten the orifices on the cooktop and the oven all the way down, and then come back up with then 1/2 a round. Then you adjust the orifices until the flame is a clear blue and no yellow is seen. Hope this helps.
