Since I've already battled the Olypian catalytic heater on the RV forum, I'll use my data from that:
Direct quote from page2 of the Olypian Catayltic owners manual:
******************WARNING************************ "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. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning often cannot be recognized before losing consciousness." ************************************************
*********************************************** require a total of 24 sq. inches (i.e. a 4" X 6" total open area) to properly ventilate ***********************************************
Do I need to take a copy of the Olypian owners manual to futher prove my point or is my word good enough that this is what the owners manual states?
Most newer homes are built today are so tight that dangerous levels of all off gas from the building products is a large concern. I can copy some info from my Indoor Air Quality Engineers handbook if you would like.
Please just show me one direct quote from ANY vent free fuel burning appliance owners manual that states the appliance does NOT need ventilation.
If you DL the owners manual, please give me a link to it so I can read the manual so we discuss and compare apples with apples.
