Coldest camping for us so far has been in the mid to high 30's and the CH worked fine. But when I took the trailer out to Howe last winter it was 2 degrees when I stopped over in Ohio. The CH was not doing much so it was the propane furnace to get the trailer warmed up. Once I got it to 50 degrees it was back on the electric.

Still need a small heater up in the front bath, minimal airflow to the bedroom and front portion.

Honestly don't stay in super cold areas. But with 30A 220V it should do just fine in really cold temps. Running the furnace is better than just the little heaters because you are heating the basement also.

Fall in NW WA before heading south we get freezing temps and the furnace heats up easily from the 60 overnight setting.

YES one could add a little heater in the basement also.
