Is it okay to use the same torch with both propane and natural gas? (alternating).

I have a summer home that I would like to be able to use the same equipment that I use all year long - although none of it is actually purchased yet! Except that I am on a HH now and am planning to purchase the Betta to use with NG at home with a concentrator. Our summer home has a large propane tank ( no idea of the pressure etc) that fuels the BBQ and fireplace - that's it - we don't even use the fire place in the summer... So - I would love to know if it is okay to alternate between natural gas and propane using the same torch? or is there something that I should do to purge the torch between uses?

Yes you certainly can. You may notice a difference in heat, natural gas is cooler by a couple of hundred degrees, but apart from that, you shouldn't have any problems.
