Before ordering
Verify the complete appliance model, original gas type and control system on the rating plate. A kit for a different fireplace size, opposite conversion direction or different ignition system is not interchangeable. This part is needed only when making the listed fuel conversion; an appliance already configured for the installation’s gas supply does not require a conversion kit.
Installation and documentation
Conversion must be performed by a qualified service agency using the certified kit and its supplied instructions. Follow the appliance manual for gas connections, pressure verification and commissioning. Do not operate the fireplace on a gas type different from its approved configuration, and do not improvise or substitute conversion components.
Empire DVL36/46BP installation manual, 43157-9-0125, page 60, explicitly maps 42054 to DVL46BP70 and this conversion direction. Retain the kit instructions and appliance documentation after installation. Installation must follow manufacturer instructions and applicable codes.
