Question:

I am interested in vermont casting gas stoves. can you convert a woodburning to gas ?



Answer:

In general- you cannot convert a woodstove to gas. The only exception might be a large - old franklin type (open) stove. This may have a big enough firebox and flue to convert. Even if you converted- the result would not be an efficient stove.
