The difference is the threaded Orifice installed at the burner assembly.

Part two.
The logs can be used for either LP or NG, but the appropriate orifice must be used. IF YOUR INSPECTOR IS NOT USING THERMAL IMAGING, YOU'RE NOT GETTING THE WHOLE PICTURE ® Jeff PopeJPI Home Inspection Service Santa Clarita CA (661) 212-0738 Santa Clarita Home Inspection http://www.MyInspector.net |

The issue with gas fire places used with propane gas is the sooting that occurs. When LP is used properly placing the materials used to enhance the flame is very important. Ive installed many gas fireplaces and never seen the option for LP log sets. Just LP conversion kits that included orifices, new spring for valave and a lot of stickers.
