I would talk to a plumber who runs gas lines, not a fireplace guy. Those guys work pretty cheap here, but not the fireplace guys. They overcharge here as well.

Very good idea, thanks for chiming in ! I'd still go with a gas bottle if possible because running a gas line there would be very costly and troublesome (hard to explain but trust me on this). I could run a vent free or even vented since the draft id pretty good as is (I could feel hot inside air escaping when I went on the roof to look at the chimney) but I like the ventless idea even better.... I see this in hotel lobbies all the time (open) and somehow never thought of it. Brilliant, thanks !
