Nice Bosch dryer now works with propane...
Comments about BOSCH WTZ1280 LP Convertible Kit:
I ordered this to convert Bosche Natural Gas Dryer to LP/Propane Gas. You HAVE to use this kit to make the change. A standard whirlpool/maytag/ge kit WON'T work. The instructions, all 5 pages in English or another 5 pages in French are excellent with pictures. There are 49 steps to the instructions. You have to remove the back of the dryer, the top of the dryer, the dryer drum and then begin work. The piece is inserted near the front of the dryer near the round access portal (on our model). Very challenging for the Bosche service tech we hired to do the install. It recommends tools that are EXTREMELY expensive. Our tech used regular tools, BUT we did have troubles with a leak that had to be addressed twice and had we used the recommended TORQUE tools, we probably would not have had to do that. But, the part works well on the dryer, just VERY challenging to install. Took the service tech about 1-1/2 hours to install it, and he was very familiar with the insides of the dryer and how to take it apart and put it together properly. Would recommend you check the propane connection and address any leaks while service tech is there to ensure all is well.....
