Zodiac JXi / Astralpool iXi 200 & 370 LPG (Propane) Conversion Kit – Natural Gas to LPG
This genuine conversion kit is specifically designed to allow compatible Zodiac JXi and Astralpool iXi 200 and 370 gas pool and spa heaters to be safely and properly converted from Natural Gas (NG) to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG / Propane). Ideal for locations where natural gas is not available, this kit contains the essential components required to switch the fuel source of your heater system.
Key Features:
- Compatible with Zodiac JXi 200 / 370 and Astralpool iXi 200 / 370 models
- Converts from Natural Gas to LPG (Propane)
- Includes all required genuine conversion parts
- Designed for optimal combustion and performance after conversion
- Extends the usability of your existing heater in off-grid or bottled gas setups
Important Safety and Compliance Notice:
- Must be installed by a licensed gas fitter or qualified professional
- The heater must be adjusted and tested after installation to ensure correct combustion and safe operation
- Incorrect installation may lead to unsafe operation and void warranties or compliance
Why Choose This Kit?
Switching to LPG allows more flexibility in locations without natural gas supply. Using a manufacturer-specified conversion kit ensures safe operation and continued performance of your pool or spa heating system. This conversion is often needed for customers living in rural or off-grid areas where propane gas is the only available option.
In plumbing, named sizes are not the actual measurements. A pipe called “50mm” or “2"” does not measure 50 mm across. Instead, it follows nominal sizing, an internationally-standardised naming system.
Use the Outside Diameter (OD) to check your pipe against fittings. Below is a quick reference for common spa & pool pipe sizes:
Imperial Name | Metric Name | Pipe Diameter (OD) |
---|---|---|
1" | 25 mm | ~33.4–33.7 mm |
1.5" | 40 mm | ~48.1–48.4 mm |
2" | 50 mm | ~60.2–60.5 mm |
2.5" | 65 mm | ~75.2–75.5 mm |
These are nominal sizes and are designed to fit matching fittings — not to measure exactly what their name suggests.
Understanding Plumbing Sizes & Nominal Measurements
Plumbing sizes can be confusing. PVC and many other pipe systems use nominal sizes—the size is a name, not the exact measured dimension. This convention is used across most pool and spa systems so that pipes and fittings remain compatible.
Why pipe sizes don’t match the measurements
The Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) system standardises pipe dimensions so that pipes, fittings, valves, and accessories interoperate. Plumbers work with these nominal names every day, but DIYers can be tripped up if they try to match by a tape-measure alone.
How to Measure Pipe Correctly
-
Pipe size is identified by:
- The pipe’s Outside Diameter (OD).
- The fitting’s Inside Diameter (ID) (socket opening).
- Pipe Class / Schedule (e.g., Class 9, 12, 18 or Sch 40) relates to wall thickness and therefore the Internal Diameter (ID) and pressure rating.
- The outside diameter of a fitting is not useful (wall thickness varies by manufacturer).

Common nominal sizes with typical outside diameters and indicative inside diameters by class.
Imperial Name | Metric Name | Outside Diameter (OD) | Class 9 IDº | Class 12 IDº | Class 18 IDº |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1/2" | 15 mm | ~21.2–21.5 mm | 18.3 mm | 17.8 mm | |
3/4" | 20 mm | ~26.6–26.9 mm | 23.7 mm | 22.4 mm | |
1" | 25 mm | ~33.4–33.7 mm | 30.5 mm | 29.8 mm | 28.1 mm |
32 mm | ~42.1–42.4 mm | 38.5 mm | 37.5 mm | 35.4 mm | |
1.5" | 40 mm | ~48.1–48.4 mm | 45.2 mm | 44.1 mm | 42.8 mm |
2" | 50 mm | ~60.2–60.5 mm | 55.2 mm | 53.7 mm | 50.5 mm |
65 mm | ~75.2–75.5 mm | 68.9 mm | 67.0 mm | 63.2 mm | |
2.5" | ~73 mm |
- º Internal diameters vary slightly by manufacturer and class.
- 1 Not all pool/spa fittings match these dimensions exactly. Some do not follow Australian or international standards. Chinese spas may use proprietary fittings.
Hose & Tube Dimensions
Common flexible hose sizes used in pool/spa systems (approximate IDs).
Imperial Name | Metric Name | Inside Diameter (ID) |
---|---|---|
3/8" | 9–10 mm | ~9 mm |
3/4" | 19 mm | ~19 mm |
BSP – British Standard Pipe Thread Sizes
BSP thread names are also nominal. The thread OD will not equal the nominal name.
BSP Thread Size Naming | Outside Diameter (mm / inch) | TPI |
---|---|---|
1/16" BSP | 7.7 mm / 0.304" | 28 |
1/8" BSP | 9.7 mm / 0.383" | 28 |
1/4" BSP | 13.16 mm / 0.518" | 19 |
