We have an old wood burning stove, and we were thinking about putting a gas insert inside it with those gas logs. That way instead of using wood, we could just have it hooked up to our natural gas and turn it on that way. But when we visited our local fireplace store, they told us that can't be done. We're wondering if that is true, or if they were just trying to sell us a new gas stove. Any advice out there??

I'm guessing you are talking about a cooking stove that is all closed in. If so...it can be done....but way too much trouble..and even then there are dangers of it malfunctioning and killing you by blowing up or with carbon monoxide.

maximum gasoline burning fireplaces are no longer insulated with firebricks. they are in uncomplicated terms thinly layered with fireproof sheets. Burning timber in those fireplaces gets too warm. it might desire to destroy the fire. i does no longer temp it.
