Cold Weather Camping

I"m taking my '05 2619 TM out for the first time the w/e of 3/24 in central Maryland. The weather forecast says high of 47 and low 20s. We've had some warm weather so I'm thinking the ground has warmed up. The camp site is full hookup - water, electric and sewer. Any advise? Thanks.

Get a 1500 watt electric heater. Since you will have shore power, why burn up your propane. 1500 watts is probably the largest you could use on the TM circuit. Some people run a second one, if it is really cold, by running an extension cord from another plug if the campsite next to you is vacant. If you choose to use an extension cord for an electric, be sure is is large enough for the task. Cermaic style heaters seem to be the most popular. Search on heaters may find some interesting reading.

Most campers seem to use the electric heat to save propane but still leave the propane furnace on low to keep it from getting too cold if the electric heater can not put out enough heat.

Close off the larger sources of drafts. My largest one is the door bottom. Others report drafts at the bunk ends.

Have fun.

Thanks for the info. I have a ceramic heater & heavy duty electric cord that I'll be sure to take with me. The water was a main concern. Thanks again.

I don't have access to the link you posted. May be I have limited access. Do I need to become a member? How do I do that and how much does it cost? Thanks.

About the condensation - we find that it helps to run a small AC fan to help circulate the air.
