CONVERSION KITS
Gas conversion kits are available from your Hestan dealer should you need to convert an LP unit to NG, or
vice-versa.
HIGH ALTITUDE KITS
If you live in a high altitude area, 2,000 ft. [610 m] or more above sea level, your grill will require
different orifices for proper combustion and performance. High altitude kits are available through
Hestan Customer Service. Please have your model and serial number information ready when you call.
DELUXE CART / GAS CONNECTION TO A STATIONARY SUPPLY
The Hestan Deluxe grill with LP gas is supplied with a two-stage regulator/hose assembly for
connection to a standard 20 lb. LP portable gas cylinder, which locates inside the large pull-out drawer
in the cart base. Take care to point the regulator & hose to the right of the drawer as shown in the
image below. This is necessary to avoid kinking or otherwise damaging the hose when pushing the
drawer back in.
Natural Gas (NG) units, or propane (LP) units connected to a stationary gas supply outside the grill
must be connected using a 10 ft. approved gas hose. This hose is supplied with NG units, or may be
purchased as an accessory for LP units.
When routing the hose behind your grill, be careful not to roll over the hose, or place it in an area
of high foot traffic which could create a tripping hazard. Make sure there are no sharp bends in
the hose. Periodically check the hose for scratches, nicks, brittleness, cracking, which could all
lead to a gas leak. Check for gas leaks if you ever smell gas (see LEAK TESTING on pg. 19). As an
added safety measure, shut off the gas supply after each grill use. Do not push excess hose length
back into the rear access hole of the grill cart. There is not enough room inside the unit and the
hose would get kinked or damaged by the opening/closing of the large drawer.
These same safety measures apply to Hestan grills mounted on a traditional Tower cart.
