Would you mind explaining the occasion of your CO2 poisoning? I
suspect that you meant CO poisoning, just want to clarify or learn
something new. BF



CO2 is just as poisoning as CO. "We breathe out CO2 so it must be ok",
they'll retort if you mention it. We breathe out a little CO2, not the
output of a catalytic heater or CO2 extinguisher. I've seen Navy sailors
with CO2 extinguishers overcome fighting a grease fire in the galley. The
fire went out about the same time as the sailors....from CO2 and lack of
oxygen.

Please don't run UNVENTED heaters of any fuel inside the boat....Please?
