It would be different if the RV was 100% electric, but as long as there is a propane system in place, I think I would run it occasionally whether needed or not.

I'm curious what the owners' manual says about idling these systems for long periods of time.
Just curious! In the summer when it's 100 degrees you're going to exercise your furnace? Do you do that in your S&B in the summer? Do you exercise your a.c. in the winter? Think I'll pass & hope it runs next winter.
