You must change the regulator to accept propane
I would contact the makes with model number .Some models will not convert
SOURCE: I want to convert a model 3e476b propane counter
The Dayton brand belongs to WWGrainger if the parts are available that would be the only place.
SOURCE: Can the Dayton model 3e368e be converted to use
If you know a dealer or repair company,they can order orifices to change out in the unit.
SOURCE: How to convert from Nat. gas to propane to gas
You can buy a conversion kit from Tappan. Its pretty much a case of changingthe injecors for each burner and the ovena nd grill then changing the main gas inlet hose and then testing.

Hi, I do not no the age of this unit, but when a furnace is installed, it is set up for Nat. gas., and they most always leave you a small package taped to or near the gas valve that has the spring and L.P. orfice in it, in case it is needed. See if you can find it first. If not, get all of the numbers from the main gas valve (mgv) and from the unit heating plate attached, b.t.u.If you can't find it, at the top of the main valve, you will see a brass colored screw slot.May be aluminum. Turn off gas and power. Remove the threaded screw cap and remove all small parts, a spring, a plastic or maybe aluminum round orfice, about 3 pieces. Keep them in the order you remove them.Replace with the L P Parts if you have them. If not, you will need to take the parts and all numbers you can get from valve and unit to a appliance parts store to purchase.You shouldn't have to adjust the gas pressure as now days they are the same for nat. and L P.About 3.4" of water colume. Thats a different name for pressure. Very easy for you to do. Good Luck, Shastalaker7
