We cool and cold weather camp often. I have 2 small electric heaters with thermostats that we use with no problems in the camper. On cold nights, the camper is small enough that the 900 watt setting on most heaters works great. I put one in the front bedroom and one in the kids bunkroom. Set the T-stat for comfortable and go to sleep.
On just cool nights I'll set up one on 1500 watt setting with the T-stat for comfortable in the main cabin and turn on the AC fan. The heat rises up to the AC ducts and gets blown all over to warm up the whole camper.
Plenty comfortable. Modern space heaters have tip over protection and don't get hot enough to burn anything even if they fall. Takes less electricity than the AC in the summer and its already included in the cost.
GEO method, I've never done it. I usually flush out my tank a couple times a year if I have full hookups. If I ever got frustrated enough with the tank sensors I might consider a deeper clean, but I figure I'm going to poop in it the next morning anyways, so why bother...?
