we camp in cool and cold temps quite often in the spring and fall. lowest temps are probably in the mid 20's. At night we set the thermostat to 45F and have it come on to 70 at 7am when we get up. that way the furnace usually doesn't run at night and wake us up, and when it comes on, that's the alarm clock.

Never have had any water problems, and the belly pan is not well insulated. but the volume of water helps keep it from freezing.
we don't use any portable propane heaters. unless you are in a dry climate the water added can end up being a condensation problems on windows etc. for every gallon of propane burned in a portable non vented heater, your stove, your oven, you will put almost a gallon of water into the air. If it's a dry climate that may be a help, if it's already humid, well, we have enough problems with humidity without any more water.
closing the drapes helps keep heat in.
