To the point, excellent instruction/guidance, well done, I would maybe say this is for people with advanced knowledge on gas appliances, I'm sure a novice can learn from also, as soon as I saw location, I was golden. Thank you for the straight forward direction. I hope you didn't get blown up with a million questions from people who have never done conversion, as they shouldn't be attempting this. Thank you

Hello 👋 Hello 👋 good buddy Jay my number one best friend good to see you my friend I was just thinking about you earlier and now I got to see your new video. I just did the same thing probably a month ago at my brother's house he bought a new gas dryer and it was for natural gas and I had to change the orfices and convert it to propane gas. When he got his at Lowes it didn't have them with it even though the directions said so ..he went back to Lowes and they gave it to him..that's a very good video for people who want to learn how to do it good buddy...I hope you all are doing well and enjoying life to the fullest 😊..it's beautiful 😍 weather here I've been mowing it grows so fast this time of year here..tell everyone I said hello 👋 good buddy and give them a hug for me I love you all like family 👪 😊 Jay. Today I'm working on a windmill project I've had it for 20 plus years it is just for looks but anyway the fan blades have all broken off and I am making new blades and a fan for it. I got my welder going earlier and got it all made up just got to paint it now..I like trying to stay busy it is the best medicine for your brain . Take care buddy and God bless you my dear friend and God bless 🙌 your family 👪 🙏 ❤️ jay...good to see you this made my day ❤️ 😊.

Glad to hear that the weather on your side of the world has been beautiful! That always lifts the spirit doesn't it? Fast growing grass is a small price to pay. I'll pass on the greetings and the hugs! 🙂 The windmill project sounds fun! What if you build some cool things like this and sell them on Craigslist? Not as much for the money as to bring people joy and do something you enjoy doing. I hope you are staying healthy over there, may God abundantly bless you as well my friend!! I pray for you , that the Lord will do His good work in you and give you a peace and joy that only He can give. 🕊♥🙏☝

I figured you are still very upset about Bigfoot and Arnold but thought it'd be best if I don't bring them up and cause the pain to resurface.. They say time heals so hopefully with time, the negative feelings will subside.. God bless you my friend! Never forget that God is always near and you can talk to Him the same as you would to a person standing in front of you. He knows you inside and out, better than you know yourself. Sharing grief, feelings, and sorrow with your Creator is a very calming and healing thing. I would encourage you to talk to Him on a daily basis. Religion is okay but relationship is the real deal.

Good instructions, I'm an appliance repair guy. Just wanted to add that you pulled the gas valve really easy, but sometimes dryers will have a 2 screw bracket thats holding the gas valve pipe down to the floor in the back of the inside of the machine that you will have to remove before performing that action.

Informative!!!!

thank you for all of your videos! Ive learned alot the last week trying to troubleshoot my AC unit not turning on but my furnace turns on. I turn on the AC and manually push the plunger in and the ac fan turns on, but wont stay on the second i depress the plunger. Theres no volatge coming in to the contactor coils. I did use sandpaper to the contactors too. The coil is not rusty and neither is the capacitor or mushroomed. When everything is on, theres 240v coming into the contactor bottom 2 terminals, and theres 240v coming into the bottom left and top left terminals, but no power coming into the bottom right and top right terminals. I checked ohms on the coils and its 17ohms. Thermostat wires are drawing all the power it needs, but the issue is when i check the control board, theres enough voltage being drawn from all other terminals except when i check the voltage from R-Y it shows .44volts (and weirdly, when i pull the fuse in the outside disconnect box but turn on the thermostat to on AC, the R-Y terminals read 28v). Checked the voltage at the splice atop my furnace for thermostat wires and they read 28v. The only thing i can think of is theres a bad thermo wire somewhere between the control board and the ac unit. I inspected the wires outside, and nothing seems chewed, and i also pulled the wire nuts off and checked for continuity and they are beeping, but the only one not beeping is the white common wire spliced with the yellow high pressure switch wire i believe. theres also 17 ohms between the two contactor coils as well. I checked the power at the service disconnext at the outside unit and theres 240v coming in, but i noticed the bottom right contact is loose and when i check the bottom right and top left contacts, it only reads 50v. the bottom left and top right reads 120v. Can you please fill me in on where to look next and figure out why im not getting any power to the coils?

Some states require a label to be put on the appliance showing when it was converted to LPG.

Does the propane tank need a regulator valve on it? Very good video, thank you

I believe the LP conversation kit restricts the flow of gas not because of pressure, but because LP burns hotter. Natural gas isn't as refined so you need more volume of NG compared to clean LP.

Does the propane outlet in the laundry room need a thread plugged tapping upstream. Replacing old GE with new GE LP converted dryer. No thread plugged tapping was in place for 20 years on the old dryer. Was it installed not to code all those years

After replacing the orifice, does the valve that let's the gas flow need to be opened more? It was screwed all the way down?

Hey, thank you for the informative video btw! I did have a question as well. What are the other two parts of the conversion kit for. You showed the LP Orpheus but there are two more pieces. Are they just not needed in a LP conversion?

Hi Jay, Great presentation as always! I notice you have that Milwaukee 105 degree right angle adapter, have you tried in higher torque scenario such as driving screw into studs, etc..? Its strange Milwaukee doesn't list how much ft/lbs it can withstand !

After converting my brand new dryer it’s not getting hot

What was the model and make

I knew there was a difference in the orifices. Most of my appliances use natural gas or Electric. My RV camper has propane gas for the furnace, hot water, oven stove, and refrigerator. The water heater and refrigerator can also run on electricity. This is a good video explaining the difference between the two gases. So the orifice is smaller than the natural gas orifice. Now I know the difference. Lol. Awesome jokes my friend🤣

Not only does propane typically operate at a higher pressure, the main reason for the smaller orifice is that natural gas is around 1,000 BTU per cubic foot whereas propane is 2,500.

Hello! Just subscribed recently and I have a A/C question for you. My outside unit will turn off before cooling the house down to temp but the blower stays on. Whenever restart the AC at the thermostat, the blower kicks on but the outside compressor/fan will stay off. The only way I can get it to attempt to start up on its own is by disconnecting the thermostat completely and rebooting the Vivint security system. Then I’ll go outside and give the fan a little spin to get it to cool. Fuse inside the blower isn’t blown. I haven’t opened up the electrical panel outside to check the capacitor or contactor. But those should be alright since the unit will still start up right? Update: outside fan turns off while compressor is still running and start heating the house. My guess is the compressor will overheat and cut off without the fan. What could cause the fan motor to stop?

Watched your other video on capacitors, fixed my ac unit today. You’re awesome thank you 🙏

FYSA: the smaller orifice for the LP gas has nothing to do with pressure, it is because LP gas has more than twice the BTUs of natural gas so less gas is required for the same amount of burn time.

Just curious , what if the other way , propane to natural gas , can I drill the hole bigger instead replacing one ?

@WordofAdviceTV

Жыл бұрын

I have never tried doing that before but I don't see why not. It should work as long as you don't drill the hole too big.

You mistakenly said spin this wheel into the 'natural gas' position at 6:06. Otherwise, it is clear you are moving it into the LPG position from the previous NG position.

Thank you for this. I have done hundreds of dryers for years. Today I did a GE/Hotpoint and it had the same exact burner. I double triple checked myself before putting back together. When fired up it wouldn't fire up. The drum turned. I will have to go back tomorrow but I don't know what to do. It's brand new from Home Depot. There are no parts available as the model number does not come up on Google, Appliance Repair, etc. It seemed like the new ignitor was touching the shroud above when I screwed it back on. But there is no adjustment and that's how it came out. ??????
