Marken1, last winter we put the window shrink film on our windows. It's the same thing you can use in a stick home. We bought it at walmart. I think it was made by 3M, if I recall.

We also use electric heaters to supplement the furnace and keep the propane bill down. If you're going to be in one place for awhile see if the park offers the use of a 100 lb propane bottle. Many offer that service, charging only for the propane used. If the park doesn't, maybe a local propane supplier would provide that service.

Look also for any openings into the rig, underneath and in the basement and fill them with the expanding foam insulation.

I'm sure other ideas will be posted shortly. Good luck. Being cold is no fun. Be aware the low point drains underneath the rig are the first to freeze. If they freeze up into the belly they'll shut off water flow. Been there. You might try to insulate those lines that hang below the belly. There's two lines right together. Those are the ones.
