RE: [RC] Heaters in trailers - Chastain, Shannon L.This is the opposite of what I just
heard on the news a few weeks ago. 2 Adults and 2 kids were killed and they had
their roof vent open but the CO was all down low where they were
sleeping.

it would sink to the bottom of the trailer. In fact, since it is
a product of incomplete combustion, and therefore warm, it would rise to
the top of the trailer. Open your roof vent and you should be safe from CO
poisoning.
