Pipes for gas heater in shop?

(Please disregard misspelling in subject of my previous
message.)

Hi all,

I'm installing a natural gas radiant heater in my shop.

My local hardware chain advertises black iron pipe for
use for natural gas, and galvanized pipe for use for water.

Is there any reason for NOT using galvanized pipe for gas?

I know that I should probably hire a licensed professional
to do this, but I only need to add about 5 feet to an
existing line.

Thanks,
