How cold is cold? 25F at sunrise and most RVs are just fine running the furnace. Much below that you will need to start adding electric heaters to any exposed tanks and pipes. At some point pipes in the walls and floor may start to have freeze ups with additional measures needed or you can winterize and use bottled water. Your furnace could be running close to continuous so an extra cylinder or two of propane may help along with an electric space heater.
That sounds about right - I don't think it would be in the middle of winter or anything.
Those wireless thermometers are super cheap on amazon these days. Maybe my first step should just be to put 3 or 4 sensors in the basement around critical areas and label the displays so I know what's going on.
Most of the time no one will be inside during the day, so I'd like to leave the main area off - suppose that implies I should separate the systems and have something independent underneath.
I don't even know how to access the area or where I could find an open space for a heater, it's sealed up really well. I guess I could call Keystone and see if they have a rough layout for everything under the floor.
