The fridge uses very little LP, the furnace though is quite the LP hog.
Others will say turn it off when doing this or that or going here or there, but mine is set & I have never turned it off in the last 10 years of fulltiming with NO issues, you'll have to make your own decisions.

Ditto. Use it if it's got an auto setting. They're made to do the thinking....plugged in goes to 110 and unplugged goes to propane. Need to have good batteries to keep it running as it needs 12v, when not plugged in, to stay ignited.
