Thanks for the replies. When I stand outside and feel all that heat pouring out it bothers me. I don't do very much cold weather camping but if I was every in a situation where there would be a problem finding a propane filling station I would pull in the slides to have less area to heat. I also have a front and rear A/Cs and the heat ducts are part of the A/C system (similar to a 2 zone heating system in a home) so if I run the front furnace I'll only be heating the bedroom.
If I am hooked up at a C/G I can use the Electricity to run the A/Cs heat pump, I am concerned with being in a situation where I am boon docking in an area where there is no place to refill my tanks.
Not only is running out a concern but I am paying $26 for a 30 pound fill up at BJs in LI and that has been lasting about 7 days. If I do not run the furnace it would probably last a month. Right now I am running the fridge and water heater on propane because the circuit breaker in the house I am plugged into keeps popping if I try to run too much stuff on electricity.
