I lit a candle last night with a closed window and door. Then it hit me that there is no way there is no CO in this room. Immediately opened my window. After hearing this story, I am never sleeping with my window closed.

With one candle, you're in far more danger from it tipping over than from CO.

Yeah, I don't leave the room without the flame completely out.

I'm not sure about candles, but a decently oxygenated open flame (e.g. your stove without a pan on it) emits essentially no CO.

Getting a CO detector seems like a simpler solution than keeping your window open forever.

Are you trolling a dead couple? A candle's CO is what you are worried about? Sigh.
