Can I connect my grill to home natural gas?
Quick answer
You can use natural gas only with an NG-specific grill or a manufacturer-approved conversion kit for your exact model — never adapt a propane-only grill without the correct orifices and hose. Permanent NG lines require a licensed plumber and local code compliance; portable propane tanks cannot plug into home gas lines.
NG-ready vs propane
Many built-in and freestanding models ship NG-ready or with conversion kits. Orifices differ — propane runs higher pressure with smaller orifices.
Professional install
Hard-piped outdoor kitchens need shutoffs, leak testing, and proper quick-disconnect fittings rated for outdoor use.
