If you're going to run the suggested electric heater you'll find the gadget in the link above to be the thing Making the heater practical.

While almost all heaters have their own built in thermostat the above thermostat is remote, allowing the room to be at the temp you want at the place you want instead of the floor temp being 60 and the ceiling temp being 80.

We love this thing.
So easy.

And
My 24.1 has a wrap of heater duct around the water holding tank. It supplements.
And
Until a proof link is posted showing proof of tanks melting:
Ignore that tank melt thing.

And
Tank heater pads with the 40° built in thermostat are about 26 bucks and the easiest mod you'll do to your rv. Peel and stick and pigtail it to 12v power.
That does look like a super handy item to have. (A good thing to put on the Christmas wish list and if Santa doesn't deliver, we'll just buy ourselves one).

Our rig came with tank heaters installed. We just haven't had occasion to try them out yet. If we take this late October trip, it would likely be the "test drive," if conditions warrant. Tank melting seems like it would take a fair amount of heat, but hey, why buy trouble. These crazy tuna cans on wheels offer up enough without added encouragement from us.
