pp = propane.......AH! I get it.
I don't have a good feeling using a propane-fueled heater that burns cabin oxygen.
I would see if you can set yourself up with two 6V batteries so you don't worry about battery-drain when running your furnace overnight.
I suppose other factors include:
- how well your house is insulated
- how good your house windows are (thermal panes help a lot)
- how well sealed your slide outs are
- how many cubic feet of air you are heating overnight.
With our rig SEEN HERE with two 6V house batteries, thermal pane windows, no slide outs, an over-all length of less than 24 feet, a low interior ceiling, a narrow 93" house width, a comforter draped between and tucked around the front seats, and a privacy curtain to the bedroom where the thermostat is located, all in combination, we stay warm letting the furnace run as needed overnight without concern. The furnace does not cycle on/off that much when temps are just below freezing. We've yet to camp in temps below the high 20's.
