I sure hope AZ warms up next winter! We have to keep our trailer at least 45 degrees, 50 is better. We have two parrots.
Your inverter should come close to running everything even if the batteries were disconected. It my put out less in the day when the 110 park power drops due to the rest of the park turning on their space heaters in the AM.
It will be going into the low 30s here in the Yuma foothills this week but it is a lot better then your teens. In MI I had 50 amp and free electric so I ran 3 space heaters, 1 in the basment, 2 in the living area. Worked great.
I keep it between 50 and 60 at night for my birds.
