Lp gas usage for heater
Just out of curiosity how much Lp gas does the heater use? Say you have overnight temperature of 40 degrees and you set the thermostat to 70 degrees.can you reasonably expect a weekend out of two tanks? I would probably keep the fire place going good at the same time in a 2650rk.

LP you should make it. If you are not hooked up to electricity it will drain your batteries.

Just spent 3 nights at temps between 21-33 at night with day temps 45-55. Set thermostat to 70 because the granddaughters were with us. We only used part of one tank. I filled the fresh water tank and disconnected the water line 2 of the nights due to hard freeze.
Most people forget the water line will freeze and don't have water in the mornings until the lines thaw.
