Little tip for quicker heating, or cooling in the Summer. When you arrive at your destination, power up the furnace, but leave the slides in. (provided the slides do not cover the vents in the floor). Once the enclosed area warms up a bit more comfortable, open one slide until the temperature adjusts. Then open the second, and so in. Heating a smaller area will be faster and get you comfortable faster too.

Same in the Summer. Run the air conditioner with the slides in initially. Let the main area of the camper cool first, then open one slide at a time enabling the entire coach to equalize with each slide that opens.

Another tip to be a little more frugal on your propane in winter or electricity in Summer. If it's really hot or really cold outside, retract all the slide except the one in your bedroom. When you get up in the morning, pull them back out. Heating and cooling the smaller space will make a big difference on power usage. And keep things warmer or cooler easier.
