For one thing always make sure you don't burn any gas without proper air exchange.

Reason: When hydrocarbon gas like propane for example burns it's 1st converted to carbon monoxide.
Oxygen present in the air converts that into carbon dioxide. Water is also produced during the process.
Without enough fresh air the carbon monoxide levels can build to dangerous levels.

There's around 412ppm of Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere right now. Possibly less if you live near
a large forest where plants use some and more if you live in an industrial or city area where more is
produced.

PV = n RT

/\ learn how to use this equation.

natural gas is CH4 ?

will need to know total volume of your house, etc.

to start it would help to run the rings - without a flame - and fill up a garbage bag - to estimate the total volume of methane @ standard temp & pressure.

need to know how many minutes it takes to fill up a 32 or 45 or whatever plastic bag.

Works better if you don't light it, just turn the gas on and go to bed.
