The trouble with the wave type heaters is they do not heat the air, they heat whatever is in front of them, so I believe any heat transfer via fans to the holding tanks is going to be negligible.
I would be tempted to use the ceiling ducting for exhaust using a Fantastic fan. It would be very quiet.
I'd listen to Chris, he has forgotten more about RVs then any 100 other of us on this forum know
As for the Cat heater, Olympian used to make a thermostatically controlled heater, the "ET series", I had an ET-6100 in one rig and an ET-8100 in another. Standby current draw was 0.05 amp, ignition current was about 3 amps for about 3 seconds. I really loved those for boon-docking.
I've looked around and have seen one (recently) on eBay.
