Hi Lyle,
Guess we should keep the cabinets open under the sinks at night?
We are currently in New Mexico, where nightly temps are in the 20s. Most parks will not allow you to be hooked to water if temp is below freezing, so we are running off the fresh tank.

We are traveling from South Texas to Yuma next week. Our first stopover will be 27degrees at night. Do we hook up and keep water running in the rig?
or
Do we fill up the fresh water tank and use that instead of hooking up?
Advice is appreciated?
Temperature at your campsite could vary quite a bit from the forecast temperature. Here's a picture of our temps this morning. Note the significant difference between the "official" reading in town versus the reading closest to us.
Temp near us is 7 (F). Official temp in town is -8 (F). 15 degree difference over a distance of 5 miles.

I have a question for you guys that see way colder temps than I do here in Florida. I know If I'm using electric heaters to keep the inside warm and save propane that the underbelly area doesn't get heated. My question is, what if I was to run the furnace fan on low with the thermostat set lower that the inside temp so the heat doesn't turn on, would the belly get some heat from the inside of the trailer through the furnace return vent?
The thermostat FAN setting doesn't affect the furnace. If you do set the thermostat FAN to LOW, the air conditioner fans will run. If the thermostat set point is lower than the ambient temperature at the thermostat, the furnace will not get the signal to start and it won't run and won't circulate any air to the underbelly. The air conditioner fans will not move any air into the underbelly.
Thanks Dan, that's to bad. Looks like I need to wire in a switch to the furnace fan to manually turn it on.
I don't know what your thermostats look like but don't you have a option to have the fan just run and not on auto. The heater fan.
