    As best as I recall, when you convert one of those, you replace a small spring inside the combination valve and you replace the burner nozzles. It's nearly impossible to tell whether or not the conversion has been done just by looking at the machine. You have to rely on the sticker or on the flame. How did the flame look? - Jim Katen, Oregon That's the other thing. The flame was bluish-orange. If the converter kit is still installed, could that have accelerated the wear on the heat exchanger?

    Hi, first time posting here. I inspected a gas forced air furnance that runs on natural gas, but noticed a sticker stating it was fitted for propane. It's a Trane XE 70, Model #TUS100B936A0, manufactured around 1990. Is there some easy way to tell if it has a propane converter kit installed when it shouldn't be? BTW, the heat exchanger was replaced in Nov. 2004. Download Attachment: propane or natural gas.JPG 68.68 KB Download Attachment: propane sticker.JPG 51.23 KB
