I think the biggest issue with these particular type of appliances is adequate ventilation while in use. It looks like Grandpa Redneck has provided a few sources in the posting above mine.
Just a few stories: I have an in law who has a nice sized gas refrigerator in his garage that cools his favorite beer and beverages. I would say the vintage is in the 1930's or 1940's. It always amazed me as to how that little flame could keep all that beer so cold all the time!
I did have a Glenwood stove at one time that did have the gas log attachment. I wasn't smart enough to hold on to it when I remodeled the kitchen and have always regretted tossing it out. It provided incredible heat anytime I wanted to turn on that heater attachment.
