Where were your heaters placed relative to the fresh air supply? One of the first rules of HVAC: place heat sources at the points of greatest heat loss. It also provides the fastest rate of dilution for the harmful by-products of combustion

I also keep a CO detector, with a ppm readout, next to where I am working just for peace of mind.
