Someday I will have to move on to a gas stove as I'm getting to old to handle the three tones of wood pellets every year. Would I be able to use my existing 4 inch venting for my pellet stove which extends to the top of my chimney fo venting of a propane gas stove? Seems most gas venting uses a pipe within a pipe with the outer pipe taking in the combustion air. My current PS does not have the outside air hook up (OAK) and has been heating fine. Not sure if gas stoves require this double venting hookup?

I have no idea what "N" vent is, but as I said, if it's not tested by the manufacturer, it's NOT SAFE.
Bob i correted my comment to B-Vent i guess you missed it. If that pellet stove requires b-vent he should be ok going to a b-vent gas stove in my opnion!
