Re: The danger from catalytic heaters
i don't know about closed rooms and heaters,never have slept in any room with a heater without cracking a window or 2 (lived in Idaho for a lot of years so know about cold!)
in regards to a catalytic heater in a van,camper,motorhome,etc we have always used one,i would assume that most people that go out of their way to hook up a catalytic are aware that to safely
use one you would always crack at least 1 window and the roof vent.this will assure that you have a needed air exchange.
as my wife and i are very lite sleepers we never sleep with the furnace on (if we are in a rig that has one)that is the main reason we use a catalytic if we feel its cold enough to use additional heat.
i think the one we still use,just switching it from vehicle to vehicle must be at least 30 years old and
still works as good as it did new.
just my thoughts on this subject,do not except every one to agree!
drive slow and enjoy "its the journey"
