Why a gas cooktop needs a conversion kit for LPG

Natural gas and LPG burn differently and are supplied at different pressures, so each burner needs a jet with the right size hole for the gas it runs on. Running a cooktop on the wrong gas without converting it is dangerous. Too much LPG through a natural gas jet gives large yellow, sooty flames, while the reverse leaves weak flames that can lift off and go out. A conversion kit supplies the parts sized for LPG, and the cooktop must then be set up and tested for the new gas.

Conversion must be done by a licensed gas fitter

Gas conversions in Australia must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. They will isolate the gas and power, fit the correct jet to each burner, make any simmer or pressure adjustments the instructions call for, leak test every joint and update the appliance's gas type label. Keep the removed natural gas parts in a labelled bag in case the cooktop is ever converted back.

Questions about this part

Can I convert my cooktop myself?

No. In Australia, gas appliance conversions must be done by a licensed gas fitter. They'll fit the kit, check the burners on LPG, leak test the connections and make sure the appliance is labelled for the gas it now runs on.
