Propane is a specific chemical substance (C4H10) while Natural Gas is a combination of several organic gasses (including Propane). From what I recall it is possible to use some devices with either one, but I don't recall the details specifically. I do think the intake pressure is going to vary a lot, as the natural gas pressure in the lines is low and propane gas pressure in tanks is very high. Fortunately it varies in the 'safer' direction

I think natural gas is a lot 'dirtier' than propane, so you have more potential of clogged valves and such (especially with the lower pressure). I like it that you got technical, but propane is C3H8. Butane is C4H10.
