What is the efficiency of a typical RV furnace? 40 percent?
Surprisingly I've read they are about 75-80%. We all know that is a joke who actually live in an RV for any amount of time. I think your 40% is more accurate when it is piped thru the cheap flexible duct work in the unheated area of the RV. The heated basement sales pitch is really just a highly inefficient duct system.
When it gets cold for any length of time I bypass the duct work and just send the hot air directly into the rig. You would be amazed at how well that works. Since it never gets to freezing temps who cares about the basement.
