Main Orifice for Southern Pride Commercial Smokers
This #26 main orifice (.147" opening) is a critical component that regulates natural gas flow to your Southern Pride BBQ pit, delivering precise 65,000 BTU output for consistent heat control. Compatible with most Southern Pride commercial smokers and rotisseries, this orifice ensures optimal burner performance and even cooking temperatures.
When to Replace: Replace your main orifice if you notice uneven heat distribution, difficulty maintaining temperature, or weak flame output. We recommend inspecting annually as part of regular smoker maintenance and replacing every 2-3 years depending on usage frequency.
Installation: This is a straightforward replacement requiring only basic hand tools. Turn off gas supply, remove the burner assembly, and swap the old orifice for the new one. If you're unfamiliar with gas appliance work, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper safety and functionality.
