How to Convert the EG40 to Propane

The EG40 is a free-standing, gas-powered, vented stove manufactured under the name Enviro, a subsidiary of Sherwood Industries Limited, a company that manufactures safe, environmentally friendly gas stoves and fireplace inserts. These gas stoves are set up to run on natural gas. However, they can be converted to run on propane gas with a few adjustments.
