Even “if” the unit is designed for cool temperatures, you will burn a lot of propane.
We just finished a 2 week boondocking trip, with a couple of nights below zero F.....we burned-thru about 40 to 45 gallons of propane! But....we were comfortable and the water kept flowing!
Many think that no RV can handle below zero temperatures....possibly the same folks that think the earth is flat!
