Heating basement in the winter
We have a 2014 Tiffin Allegro RED and are planning to spend some of the winter in Pigeon Forge Tn. I'm looking for suggestions on propane usage while there. There aren't any propane people that will come to your coach. Renting a larger bottle from them requires a 3 year contract. The CG says that everyone breaks down and drives to the propane supplier. I'm trying to avoid that hassle. One option is to buy a 30 or 40 LB bottle and tie it in. There's not enough room to install an "Extend-a-stay". We can use electric inside the coach but I worry about keeping the basement warm enough to keep the pipes from freezing.2.4KViews0likes16CommentsRe: Hitting the road this summer...where to go first

Stay a week and then move another 50 miles. From Ohio, I think I'd head toward the New England area, then come down the Eastern Sea Board, work my way down to Southern Florida (Atlantic Ocean side), and then come back north on the Gulf side. Follow the Appalachian Mountains back North and head over toward Michigan, come around upper Michigan and then turn South again following the Mississippi. Once you hit the Gulf of Mexico again, head west a couple hundred miles and head North again. Head toward Montana then cut over toward Washington State and turn South via California. Go South to Mexico. This should take you about 5 or 6 years. Go North during the Summer, go South during the winter and keep zig-zagging across the country. Time is no limit. LOL..... Sounds like fun but I don't think I can talk Momma into that one. :)545Views0likes0CommentsRe: Breaking fogged dual pane glass
Ok, I did it. I put several strips of duct tape across the glass then used a spring loaded center punch to break the glass. Most of the glass came out with the duct tape. Yes there were lots of very small shards of glass and your clean up needs to be very exacting. But removing the inside pane of a dual pane window by breaking it is very doable. I'm now off to buy some screen spline to fill the void left by the removed glass.576Views0likes0CommentsBreaking fogged dual pane glass
I have a couple windows that have lost their seal and fogged up. The most important of these is the one on the right side where my mirror is. Obviously a safety issue. I don't have the time or money to replace it at this time but I have heard of breaking the inside glass and using it as a single pane until you can have it replaced. Anyone heard of this?4.1KViews0likes8Comments
