I read only one place one time that someone worried about the hot exhaust blowing down the side of the rv when traveling vs. straight out when parked. Not sure if it matters if you have graphics real close to furnace exhaust.
If it's cold enough to need heat, it's cold enough to keep the graphics cool. Don't worry about it. Been doing it for years in various RVs. - Pirate1ExplorerI read only one place one time that someone worried about the hot exhaust blowing down the side of the rv when traveling vs. straight out when parked.

- hotjag1Explorer IIWe run our furnace going down the road anytime it is getting chilly out.
We run the refer too. I agree about shutting everything down when refueling a gas rig. - dubdub07Explorer

Many folks run the furnace.
I found that if I turn the roof air on fan only, it will help distribute heat from the cab to the rest of my RV. I power the fan with an inverter.
This won't work on a bigger coach.
We run ours if it is cold.
Probably a good idea on a gas coach to shut them off when fueling.
WW - John_JoeyExplorerWe're snowbirds and that's what the norm was when we would be returning north. It would get pretty chilly on the trip home.
As always, all gas appliances should be turned off while you're fueling. - pianotunaNomad IIIMany folks run the furnace.

- EffyExplorer IIgenerally yes. I checked with my manufacturer and the answer was that it was safe and we do. (Otherwise we'd freeze while driving in the winter). But I think this depends largely in part to your particular MH and furnace.
- John_S_Explorer IISure you can as long as it is in working order.
