Short answer: not as sold. The WGen9500DFc is a dual-fuel generator for gasoline and propane. Natural gas is not one of its published fuels.
Why the model number is easy to confuse
Westinghouse sells similarly named models in the same output family. The “DF” model is dual fuel. Westinghouse also sells “TF” tri-fuel models designed for gasoline, propane, and natural gas.
Can you just attach a natural-gas hose to the propane connection?
No. Propane and natural gas have different fuel-delivery requirements. The fact that a generator can burn propane does not make its fuel system approved or calibrated for natural gas.
If natural gas is important
Start with a generator model explicitly rated by its manufacturer for natural gas. Then size the generator using its natural-gas running and peak output, because multi-fuel generators commonly have different power ratings on different fuels.
