I have a gas stove and want to do install hood as ventless using the charcoal filters. Never had a gas stove so is that safe way to use the hood?

Not without an adapter. The stove has a Lindal type valve...the Gasone cylinder uses a screw gate. Amazon sells one ... Pocket Three-Leg Transfer Head Adaptor Gas Bottle Screw Gate Camping Stove Gear

I have not had any problems using the stove outside. I would not use the yellow HEET indoors. To be on the safe side. I think it could be toxic to breathe the fumes so I would want a lot of ventilation.

I should really check the "I don't know" box, but a few considerations come to mind. (1) this is a powerful and reasonably noisy fan...ones built for the purpose of kitchen venting might be quieter. (2) you're dealing with a lot of grease and crud if you're over anything that produces smoke (such as an indoor bbq) and I doubt if this is built to handle that, (3) I should think that a hood arrangement built for the purpose might be just as cheap as a built-to-order stainless hood and duct work ( you would, of course, want stainless); (3) this is meant to evacuate an entire attic -- you could create quite a (detrimental) draft ducting it down to a single hood and/or overload the motor with restrictive duct work. But I don't see why it wouldn't work given the proper analysis and engineering. It is an exhaust fan, after all. If you're exhausting an entire (kitchen) room, I should think that the only things you need to worry about are the noise and potentially restrictive/overloading/damaging duct work.

If you are roasting it correctly you would have no smoke. But using an exhaust fan above your stove is a wise move. I have never had any smoke come out of my machine. But the heat from it does have my smoke detector go off.

No. There is a big difference between a traditional Japanese house (very drafty) and modern homes (often wrapped in Tyvek to make them even more airtight). Even high-quality binchotan charcoal produces a lot of carbon dioxide, as well as carbon monoxide. I have seen restaurants that use commercial vent hoods over the grills, but if you want to grill indoors, you should be looking at an electric unit. Again, I'm not saying that people never have used these indoors, just that it won't work in a modern home.

I didn't notice a butane smell any more than I notice a gas smell from my gas grill at home. As is the case with a gas grill, you should always use stoves like this in a well ventilated area!

I use propane also. There was a decent coating of soot built up after seasoning the cooker. One run with no oil and one with a good coating of high temperature cooking spray. This is normal for all the grills and smokers I have ever used.

This unit can be installed with or without external vent. If you can not install external vent just do not do any changes. It will exhaust from it top front through a charcoal filter which is already installed by manufacturer. Aman

Your building code will let you know if it's okay. Some states let you have a propane ventless but not natural gas and there's restrictions as to what room you may install the unit, as in not a bedroom. And yes a gas line is needed for the gas unit. I put in my line but I'm a building contractor, so unless you are handy you will need a plumber to install the line.

no, it is designed for a stove which would be inside where you should never use charcoal.

No, but there is no need to. You adjust the heat with the vents. If you want to have the coals close to the cooking surface, you can use the included baskets to pile up the charcoal.

We have been using this on Gas stove with no issues. It is dishwasher safe and the lid is vented

YES. You need to vent anything with combustion. BUT this is the external module. The exhaust VENT is the narrow strip you see near the top front.

I forgot to mention that a charcoal filter kit is required for recirculating vent. http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name;=49-40641-3.pdf

Can't offer any info on the propane question, we have both of ours hooked up to natural gas. They are great, did not disappoint us and never needed any venting.
