Nieco 27499 Lp Orifice 28.5 Commercial Broiler

Product Description

The NIECO 27499 is a propane (LP) gas orifice designed for use in commercial broiler equipment. The orifice controls the flow of liquefied petroleum gas to the burner, metering fuel at a fixed rate to maintain consistent combustion. Sized at 28.5, this orifice is a direct-fit replacement component for NIECO commercial appliances. Installation is typically performed by a qualified gas appliance technician or commercial kitchen equipment service professional as part of a burner service or fuel-type conversion procedure.

This orifice is suited for commercial foodservice applications where NIECO broilers operate on propane gas. It is commonly replaced during routine burner maintenance, after orifice fouling or damage, or when converting equipment from natural gas to LP service. The 28.5 orifice sizing is specific to LP fuel-air ratios and must not be substituted with a natural gas orifice of a different drill size.

Key Features

• Propane (LP) gas orifice sized at 28.5 for precise fuel metering
• Designed for NIECO commercial broiler appliances
• OEM-style replacement for maintaining proper burner combustion
• Suitable for LP fuel-type service and conversion applications
• Compact orifice fitting for direct installation into burner assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement LP orifice for NIECO commercial broiler equipment requiring a 28.5 drill-size propane orifice.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed gas technician or qualified commercial kitchen equipment service professional in accordance with applicable local codes and the IFGC. Shut off the gas supply completely and allow all components to cool before removing or installing any orifice fitting. Use appropriate thread sealant rated for LP gas service, and verify there are no leaks after reinstallation using an approved leak-detection method. Never substitute an LP orifice with a natural gas orifice, as incorrect sizing will cause improper combustion and potential hazard.
