mobile home installation- Which Stove? - # 1416

Question:

We would like to install a small box wood stove in our mountain mobile home. Many models we like specify “not for mobile homes”. Is this because of the lack of outside venting and could we vent the area around the stove to overcome this—say with a tube to the outside—or by opening a window? Or does the venting have to be direct to the firebox? Thanks.
