In a "normal" setup, the engine charges the chassis battery first and then the house battery. Normally, this is enough to keep both charged up. If your alternator is defective or your electrical demand is extreme, than the battery may run down.
If the electrical demand is the problem, you could always use your generator intermittently. Keeping your better half happy is worth the price of a few hours use of the generator.
