Heat strips in the ac units
Does any one have them? How do you like them? Also they only run off shore power or a gen set correct? Dave

I installed a heat strip in my AC unit and it really is not the way to go. Mine is 600 watt and will heat a little bit but the fan is constantly running and you'll get no quiet. For electric heat, we use a 4 foot baseboard style, freestanding heater. It's quiet and heat rises from the floor through a 4 foot wide screen distributing the heat nicely and quietly. It is switchable from 800 to 1200 watts. The ceramic heaters are loud and get hot. The baseboard we use is never overly hot to touch.
As for paying extra to use a heater at an rv park, the whole reason to get a site with power is to use it for your 120 volt appliances. In Washington, Oregon, Idaho, or Montana, we have never paid a surcharge for electrical connection.
