Just having a look at these and they seem pretty dangerous without continuous airflow?.
This is an older video but you can see the effect it had. As I understand, if the flame is blue it's suppose to be safe, that in ideal situations only co2 and water vapor is given off, but this really seems like ''perfect world'' vs ''reality''. My concern is that wit insufficient air exchange (what even is that level specifically?) carcinogenic ppm rises in the space. MJ is obviously a very hardy plant and known to take up a lot of bad stuff from the soil (well I think it was hemp specifically) so I wonder if they are also able to store bad shit from the atmosphere, in short, the plants may show no ill effect but your are smoking carcinogenic plant matter. I also figured that if the room is not venting enough, the oxygen levels will drop and then the co2 burners ''perfect blue flame'' has now been compromised due to altered oxygen ratio.
I get it that they are a cheap way to go but from what I've read so far, they don't actually seem that safe even in a well vented space. Typically a house boiler vents directly out from the combustion source, this isn't near the same?.
