I think you might want to install a CO detector in your home. This may be this issue.

Of course the oxygen level would get worse with people breathing and no air flow. However it's now a moot point since there will not likely be any more dives from that location in the foreseeable future. >A tiny air shaft could be drilled, that could also be used to lower the diving >gear into the room where the divers suit up at. It couldn't be too tiny if you want to lower diving gear! But drilling even a small shaft to provide air would be way too expensive. It would be simpler to just bring an extra tank for the sherpas to take an occasional breath from. If you did drill a shaft, you wouldn't have to pump air in, because the shaft itself would cause airflow that would keep the air fresh.
