Choosing the wrong nozzle size causes poor combustion, wasted gas, and safety risks. Yet nozzle sizing confuses many buyers. Here is how to choose the right size — a guide you can share with your own customers.
What the Aperture Size Controls
The nozzle aperture determines how much gas flows to the burner. A smaller aperture restricts flow; a larger aperture allows more. The correct size depends on the gas type and supply pressure.
LPG vs Natural Gas
This is the key distinction. LPG (propane/butane) is supplied at higher pressure, so it needs a smaller aperture. Natural gas is supplied at lower pressure and needs a larger aperture. Converting a stove from one gas to the other means changing the nozzles.
Matching Nozzle to Burner
Larger burners need more gas flow, so they use larger apertures; smaller burners use smaller apertures. Match the nozzle to the burner size and the manufacturer's specification.
