DO NOT, EVER, use a non-vented fuel burning heater INSIDE a building, RV, or TENT, Do not use your stove for heat, Do not use a portable propane heater. USe only electric heat the RV's vented furnace or another vented heater.
Reason: I've know people who got lucky and survived, but it was a few days before they recovered.
And I've read far too many news articles where they were not so lucky.
One and only one exception to this.
I have seen "Torpedo" (kerosene jet type) heaters used in a garage with the BIG DOOR open.... But only with the BIG DOOR open.
