I don't think you can eliminate CO emissions from a non vented gas or other fuel
burning heater....
There is always CO from fire. I think in some cases the fire is small and they
think it will not rise to lethal levels because of air leaks in the house, but
that is a gamble....

Burley (
www.burley.co.uk) make flue-less gas fires with catalytic converters built in, I'm thinking of having one myself to replace the electric fire in the lounge..
In England most central heating systems are on a timer that switch's them on for an hour or two in the morning then off while the occupants are at work/school, then on again about 5/6 PM till about 10 PM at a temp of about 21 degrees C. (70F) The house is left to get cold for the rest of the time. When I lived in Germany the heating was on 24 hours a day but the temp was reduced to about 16 degrees C (61F) overnight & in the day when un-occupied. What do they do in America? I never noticed when I was over there! I myself use the German system from October to April, other times I click it on for an hour or so if it get a bit chilly.... P.S. Had it on over the weekend as it was a bit chilly in the evening..
