How do, long time reader, first time poster... I recently acquired a glow worm energy 30c A-(H-GB) its a natural gas condensing boiler, and the twist is that I only have LPG at my property. Talking to the glow worm technical hotline asking about converting sed boiler to LPG I was instantly shot down stating none of their boilers are LPG compatible. However many glow worm LPG boilers are found easily on an internet search. I’m a commercial gas engineer (natural and LPG) and when I convert to LPG on the 6MW boilers i only have to use a combustion tester, and in a few cases reduce the gas opening on the burner head. So with nothing to lose I’ve tried sed boiler on LPG adjusting the gas valve to obtain correct combustion. Now with having no experience of domestic boilers what else, if anything, would I need to be mindful of when doing this conversion? Thanks in advance and look forward to helpful advice.

But why? Is the question, I know it’s not been accredited for LPG, is it a material issue I.e LPG will corrode parts of burner or is it cause it’s just written....
