    Default LPG conversion of gas hobbs/oven

    I hope this is the right forum to seek some advice. I have a natural gas cooktop/oven that I want to convert to using BBQ gas. The burners come with a LPG conversion kit. The gas connection to the cooktop is a 1/2" BSP. I have sourced a class D flexible hose. But to be able to connect to the LPG regulator, what adapter would I need? Would a SAE union like the picture below be the one? This must be often done for caravans and hence my post in this forum.

    Perhaps ask a qualified gas plumber.

    Could I respectfully suggest that you leave it up to a qualified gas ticketed plumber to do it for you, if something goes pear shaped and you claim insurance it could get very messy for you, you aint got a hope in hell of a successful claim
    The person who never made a mistake never made anything

    Cheers

    Thanks for the advice. As to the original question, I think I can answer it myself. The LPG regulator has a 3/8" BSP female, so a 3/8" to 1/2" adapter is what I'll need.
