The good news is that your body is programmed to react to high CO2 levels
in the lungs. That's why idiots can climb inside a helium balloon and pass
out from hypoxia without
o many homeowners and contractors insist on those unvented gas fireplaces
and I just know someone's gonna fall asleep on the sofa and die of CO2
poisoning! The local codes only prohibit them as primary heat source in
bedrooms and don't require CO2 detectors. I insist (I install as practice

CO2 is toxic as well, but at much higher quantites. I'd think a CO
monitor is much more useful. Either way, if you are using ANY gas
ventless heater, you need to have a couple windows cracked!

CO2 is also definitely noticeable at higher concentrations, it has a
very sharp, even painful odor. Ever get a noseful of CO2 drinking a
soda? You will also feel short of breath if you are in an atmosphere
that is high in CO2, and you recover quickly when you are removed to
fresh air.
monoxide... 1 X C CO ooops! You're right. It's the CO2 in the water
that mixes with my Scotch.

The danger with the un-vented stoves is not the CO2 production. The danger
is that they can reduce available oxygen when they do, they will start
producing CO (Carbon Monoxide). Carbon monoxide is much more deadly
