The 30A breaker that is blowing is inside the motorhome

They definitely will. They typically are 15 amp, which will support the 12.5 amps the heater uses. 20 amp are also available.

If it is a 15 amp breaker tripping, OP may have something else on the same circuit.

Thank you all for your input.

1500 watt heaters may "Stress" RV wiring some.. but that said.

I routinely run a 1500 on 30 amps along with the fridge.

But you have the fridge, You may have a battery charger/converter sucking up to 10 amps (1,000 watts) depending on how big it is and how hungry the batteries are, and the fridge pulling up to 400 not to mention the 1200 watt water heater.

I just typed 3100 watts if I'm not mistaken.

A 30 amp breaker will trip at a sustained load over 27 amps.

which breaker ? the 30 amp outside or one of the trailer breakers inside

hot water, fridge on propane,

are your btteries charged
heavy charge current plus other loads equal overload

Turn your hot water heater off.

I always run my electric heaters on a low setting ....this seems to keep the breakers from tripping.

What else do you have running?...water heater, microwave, maybe a hair dryer? Probably blowing a breaker because you are trying to draw too many amps at the same time with your 30a system.
