Is a threaded gas fitting allowed to be inside a wall space in any circumstance?
Yes you can run threaded gas fittings in any wall. Just no mechanical joints, (unions, flared fittings ect.). Just make sure you test the line with air. Our company tests at 20lbs and usually leave it overnight to see if there's a drop. This is plenty because you gas line usally only produces a couple pounds of pressure or less. Use teflon tape and pipe dope on every joint. BEFORE using "Teflon" tape make sure it the type approved for the type of "gas" your using. The white Teflon tape is NOT approved in many places as approved for gas service

What can I solder Liquid propane gas line?
To the best of my knowledge propane gas line cannot be connected by soldering. You have to use compression fittings with a flaring tool like you would use to flare fittings on an automotive brake line, however if you are unfamiliar with gas and how to use it I would suggest using a reputable contractor who specializes in heating. I have installed lines in my own home, and also am a general contractor, but still get nervous when dealing with gas. It can be very dangerous and if no ventilation, may cause you to pass out or even possibly be fatal. Please be extremely careful, best wishes.
