Hi all,

We recently got this: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/ham...ter/1001618675 which natively supports a propane tank. Since we have the nat gas line available on our patio, we'd like to use that instead.

I saw on the Home Depot site that indeed others have done this, I took a shot in the dark and got this kit: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/bon...kit/1001076012.

Had a gasfitter come out and they said it wasn't compatible (namely the bottom portion of the valve/orifice in the kit, as the kit calls for a 'flexible hose' which the patio heater does not have).

Anyway, now looking to see where I may be able to find the appropriate conversion kit and/or other ideas.

Thanks for any thoughts in advance!
