Yes I did winterize it. The reason I am wanting to keep it heated is extreme cold can be very rough on cheap meterials like plastics, glues. I'm just trying to keep it warmer then freezing to help save what I can. For a few dollars in LP I might beable to save a hassle down the road. In boats I have seen zip ties break. LCD screens crack. I know the displays on my boat are only rated for a storage temperature of -4.

Sunday temps are suppose to get down to -20. I'm gonna look and see if they sell a thermostat that goes down lower then 50. I think keeping at 35 would be ideal.

Thanks all for your responses. I was thinking I could put a hose from the fill on the RV LP tank to a portable bottle. Turn the bottle upside down and open the valve and the liquid would flow into the RV tank. I know if its in a standing position only the gas will flow until pressure is equalized.
