The heater consumes air from the space in which it is used. Sufficient fresh air must be provided to assure complete combustion of the fuel gas. Improper combustion can result in the production of poisonous carbon monoxide, causing danger of asphyxiation and death.
ALthough your point is valid, if the oxygen depletes enough to snuff out the heater enough to produce CO, I'm pretty sure I won't be conscious enough (or even alive) to enjoy the deep sleep of CO poisoning. :)
With proper ventilation there is no CO emissions.
Not much CO2 emissions at 1300 nor the 1600 Btu settings either.
If I were fearful the first thing I would do is have no propane!
There have been no recorded deaths over the past 30+ years that Olympian Wave heaters have been used..... Other type of devices yes.
We go through this same discussion every cold season...
