Changing heat pump to heat strip
Has anyone changed a roof air heat pump to a heat strip?

Every heat strip I've seen is 1500 or more watts and 5200~5600 BTU. A standard space heater is 1500 watts/5200btu. Both are 99%+ efficient but don't have sufficient power to heat a whole rig.
A heat pump is slightly more efficient but has to run a lot. If you have a heat pump, I would use it and if it can't keep up, use space heater or your propane furnace.
