I have looked at the catalytic heaters, but they are not certified in Canada for use inside RV's, etc.
The Propex units have continuous draw of 1.4 amps. That's a lot less than my current Attwood or whatever it is at 5.1 amps.
Any feedback would be appreciated.

The only concerns I would have with the propex is their heat output. A typical RV furnace has about 25,000 to 35,000 btus of heat. The propex units (looking at the big one) only has 10,000 btu's. It also only flows 85 cfm, unfortunately I don't know what the average CFM rating would be for an RV furnace, I can't seem to find that spec anywhere.
