See full version: Convert wood stove into propane gas
I did not do this modification by myself. My friend has had many jobs in his life, and one of them was installing propane units. He is a maintenance man for a school district and works with propane, boilers, and other jobs that require certification for each one.
The barbecue’s wheeled stand was also left over. Since the stand was very lightweight, Carmen cut a piece of plywood to fit the top and fashioned a portable table for camping or to hold supplies when she works on other projects. more
I forwarded your questions to Carmen, and here is her reply.
Since the barbecue came equipped with an igniter, Carmen doesn’t even need matches to start a fire. The high, medium, and low settings work great, and she can cook on the modified stove just as if it burned wood. She hasn’t tested the oven yet, however. The door still falls off.
The converted cook-stove works great in Carmen’s summer kitchen. You can see that the kitchen has plenty of ventilation–a requirement when using propane indoors.

Think about the time and money you would spend on a wood fireplace. Then think about how much better off you would be if you converted over to a propane hearth.
Do you have a masonry fireplace? You can get the convenience, efficiency and ease of a propane hearth with a propane fireplace insert. You also get a whole lot more: more
Propane fireplace inserts with blowers: So many homes have open-concept living spaces, where the family room, kitchen and dining area are all open to each other. Large spaces like that can be a challenge to heat. But some propane fireplace inserts have multi-speed blowers that push warm air out from the fireplace to the far corners of the room, creating more comfortable and even heating. here
The advantage of bringing a propane stove on a camping trip is heat control. Unlike cooking over an open fire, which is in itself an art, cooking on a stove of this type allows you to adjust the height of the flames. This generally results in meals that are evenly cooked and not charred. more
In most cases in the US, people do not have indoor propane stoves unless their house is supplied with propane. When this is the case, there is appropriate ventilation which keeps these stoves safe. Camping stoves and gas grills are never safe to use indoors. They do not provide adequate ventilation and could create toxic hazards for you and your family. If you were in a situation where you needed to use such a stove at home, you should still use the stove outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
You should take some care in how you store propane tanks. They should not be kept in temperatures that will exceed 120 F (48.89 C). This means, especially in hot weather, propane canisters do not belong in your car or your trailer. If you have children, keep the propane stove out of reach of kids, and consider disconnecting the tank when the stove is not in use. [links]
The camping propane stove can range from the simple to the complex. The simplest forms feature one or two burners. You normally have to buy a small tank of propane to go with the stove. Other camping stoves can feature three or four burners, for people who might enjoy elaborate outdoor cooking. Yet if your camping needs are basic, perhaps requiring a burner or two to make coffee or heat up beans, you can get by with the simplest stove. They’re lighter, smaller and easier to pack.
