Question
We have a Kenmore LPG grill that is about 14 years old and in excellent shape.  We would like to convert it over to NG, however there are no kits available for it.  Any suggestions.  The model # is 415 15875.  Thank you for your help, we look forward to hearing from you

Answer
Hi Eric,
I have never personally converted a grill from LPG to NG. I based my answer off research I did on the web before composing this answer for you. It appears Kenmore has  their valves and other components preset at the factory for LP. They recommend that you hire a professional to come out and do a conversion. Their reasons are so they are not liable for damage to property, injury or death that could happen if it is not installed properly. They may not have the conversion kit for your model due to the age of it. A professional technician would be able to determine if it is possible to convert your grill and the costs that will be incurred. If you get the estimate the you can decide if you want to do it or it may be less expensive to just go out and buy a brand new grill specifically designed for NG.
Here is one of the many sites I used to come to my answer...

I am sorry if I don't have a suggestion other than let a professional look at your grill to see what all needs to be done to convert your grill. Feel free to ask me any follow up questions.
