heating in winter
do you have to be plugged in to electric for the furnace to work? i know the furnace is propane, but do you need electric to run the thermostat and blower? Thank you.

So yes and no. You don't need shore power to run the furnace blowers, the batteries will take care of that, but you do need something to recharge the batteries............

Exactly. A relatively inexpensive solar system will generally take care of recharging the batteries for you. Solar being preferred in my view but you need to be aware that the panels will need go exposure throughout the day. So, minimal shade, no snow cover and hopefully more sun than clouds.
