I originally planned to put all my solar there as well in my 3761fl, but by the time I got the inverter and all 4 of my MPPT controllers, 2 gallon water pressure pot in there wasn't enough room for the batteries, so went in the front compartment, I was NEVER planning on travel in the cold but here I am in SD waiting for a blizzard and with a small space heater in the compartment to keep the batteries warm! IN light of this I purchased heat matts I was planning on putting under the batteries to keep them warm. But alas 1 was bad and I had to return both so I installed the heater.
Take my advice put the batteries in a heated compartment!
