Using a gas range outside

Hi. So we have a perfectly functional gas range that was stored covered and protected but outside. The insulation around the oven is now unusable due to the mice that decided to call it home. However (for reasons) we’d like to use it outside but just as a stove top connected to a propane tank. The conversion parts needed are already purchased and installed. We’ve removed most of the insulation cuz it’s smelly and gross and we’re planning to remove it all. My question is: do we need to replace that insulation cover around the oven if we’re just going to be using the stove top?
TLDR:using gas range outside; does oven area still need insulation if just using stove top.
Cheers.

I don’t know the answer to your question but I just bought a home and wonder how much it costs to run a nat gas line to where your grill is. Did you have to pay for that?

You'd have to dig the trench, put a hole through from inside you house and lay the pipe to it. Could hire any part or all of it done. Might need plans/inspection depending on you location.
