Simple it is not but the solution is.. The problem
you have the loads the RV places on the battery all the time, in addition you may have additional load (Furnace) if it is cold at night.
You have the load of your CPAP Machines,, and if they have heaters that can be rather heavy.
you add 'em all up, double it and that's how much battery you need.

Post what your battery/ies are and perhaps we can suggest some upgrades.
For example I have seen rigs with a pair of (or in some cases just one) Group 24 or 27 MARINE/deep cycle batteries.... Upgrading to a pair of GC-2 is like adding a 3rd battery with no change in the footprint.
Generally the soultion is to upgrade your battery bank.
