The BTU/KW output of the heater would come into the equation,is there anything on the manufactures website?

I would not expect your greenhouse to be air tight. So ypu will have advantageous air coming in though all the leaks(for cubustion). Plants like CO2, you dont so put the heater off when you are in there. Or leave the door just ceacked open. If its a purpose built greenhouse heater it will only be a couple of KW's. So unless you intend to move in it will not be life threating.
always have a target
and an objective.
