Well I ran the furnace by accident with the slide outs in and no problems. The day before we were to leave Florida the temp dropped to 4C/39F at night so we naturally ran the furnace. Well it was warm in the morning and the furnace was not running so I forgot about it. Woke up to a warm trailer the next morning and very morning after that on the way home. (the coldest was -15C/5F). The only issue was with the dinning room slide out in it covers the thermostat. It still has air circulation but you have to open a window in the slide to access it. Other than that it worked fine. Checked the heat around the "restricted" vents and they where just toasty warm, not hot. Your could touch them with your hand. 3 inches of clearance from the bottom of the slide. It was all good.
