Just wondering, which appliance is more energy efficient in a 38 ft. fifth wheel. Fireplace - space heater or propane furnace? Opinions please.

If you choose space heater - can you recommend a good brand and where you purchased it?

Thanks again!

One gallon of propane is equal to 27 kWh of electricity. We can compare the costs of these fuels directly by looking at the price per unit (propane gallons or kilowatt hours) and finding the price difference. This can easily be done by looking at your electric bill and multiplying the price per kWh by 27. The resulting number will be a dollar figure that will be either greater than or less than the price of a gallon of propane. For example, if you are paying 12¢ per kWh, the electrical cost comparison figure to a gallon of propane will be $3.24 (.12 x 27 = 3.24). Electricity is cheaper than propane if propane is selling for $3.24 per gallon and propane is cheaper than electricity if it is selling for less than $3.24 per gallon.
