Ken,
Assuming you have a standard RV furnace that runs on propane, it runs on 12 VDC from your battery.
So to run it for extended periods of time, you would need to run you generator to power your converter or charger to recharge the battery.
Yes, you could also use space heaters directly from the generator, but that would be trading propane consumption for much longer generator run time. You have to decide which way you want to go.
You will have to check you rig to see if the propane furnace heats the tanks/plumbing.
