Imagine being in your RV anywhere north of Florida when December’s bomb cyclone hit. With temps plunging below zero in many areas, gas furnace could keep you warm. But even many “all season” RVs aren’t designed for bitter cold.
How can you improve your RV’s thermal dynamics to make the bitter cold less bitter? We were at Suwannee Hulaween music festival one year when the early morning temps were in the 30s. We flipped on the furnace and were comfy in no time. Heck, it was in the 70s by early afternoon. That’s Florida.

A blowout left us stranded on the roadside – with one tire shredded and another punctured, and the brass fittings of the LP gas lines serving the fridge and stove sheared off.
