Hi ICamel,
Let me start by saying my daughter is a CO survivor.
The combustion products from all hydrocarbon combustion heaters include water. They also include CO.
From the article referenced below:
"The peak CO concentration ranged from 68 ppm to 125 ppm and the steady state CO concentration ranged from 67 ppm to 109 ppm."
and
"When the catalytic heater was operated in a closed room (ACH ~ 0), the oxygen was depleted from an ambient concentration of 20.9 percent to 8.8 percent. Because the catalytic heater can deplete the O2 concentration to such low levels, the heater poses a serious risk of hypoxia."
