I would not recommend a ventless gas fireplace. Most builders in our area (DC) have stopped using them. The issue is less with CO problems and more with H2O. Those things put out a TON of water vapor - all that natural gas burns into CO2 (hopefully) and H2O. All that water vapor collects in the room, seeps into the walls, and halfway through the insulation, it condenses back to liquid and causes mold (gasp!) and wood rot.
Personally I think mold is right up there with radon as an overblown issue but rotted wood framing in a wall is something that everyone can appreciate.
My humble opinion,
Chris
