Leave a roof vent cracked.
Use an electric heater rather than propane heaters.
Run a dehumidifier.
Damp Rid won't hurt, but might not provide enough, in and of itself.
no difference between electric heat and propane furnace. both just heat the inside air, nothing else.
Now propane oven or stove will add water to the air from combustion, about 1 gallon of water per gallon of propane burned. But furnace will NOT add any water to the air in the trailer, it is all vented outside.
Propane unvented heaters, another story, they also dump water into the air.
If you have humidity problems, go to a big box store and buy the smallest compressor driven dehumidifier you can find. It will do the trick.
Nailed it!
We full time in the cool moist PNW, always run range vent when cooking, bathroom vent when showering.
We use Cheap Heat electric add on unit to our furnace for heating most of the time.
Will NEVER use a moisture absorption crystals as if you spill the fluid on a porous surface it will never be dry again.
