For those of us with propane-only WHs we're conserving propane for the furnace. 2 weeks ago we were in the low 20s(F) for a week. You'd be surprised about how much gas a propane furnace consumes - even with space heaters running flat out and the tstat set to 66F. This is a 30 amp park. Yes, using one's own shower is preferred. I'm a bit lucky in that the propane-only WH in the MH is not in the basement. It's in the house. I don't have to worry about it freezing from not running it.
This morning a propane company that delivers to the RV park said that there is a shortage of propane to the area (Forks, WA to Port Townsend, WA). The cold snap 2 weeks ago drained reserves. We have another cold snap coming through. I expect a spike in the price of propane. I have an external bottle in addition to the onboard tank. I should be about to ride out this next cold snap w/o needing propane, but I'll be showering at the CG, just to make my propane last longer.
