Natural Gas Vs Propane.
I just bought a Rheem from a friend since he never used it. He lost the manual, but I got a copy online. Its says that its Natural Gas , But I cant figure out how to convert it to propane. There really isnt much information in the manual , or online for this issue so Im not sure if I need to just go buy a differnt heater that is already set up for propane. Is there any information to find out what needs to be done to run prooane ?
