Running heater when RV is covered

I have a 4-seasons 5th wheel that I recently put a cover on for the summer. If I leave that cover on can I still run the furnace over the winter to keep the underbelly warm?

I was thinking that or worse it may not even vent and cause worse problems. I wonder if I could cut a hole in the cover for the vent and solve the problem? I hate to pull the cover off for the winter as we get a lot of snow...

The exhaust from the heater exhaust vent may burn a hole thru the cover.

Where will the "exhaust" from the heater exit? Through the cover? Take the temperature of the exhaust if through the cover and decide. Run an unattended RV heater...not me.
