Propane vs Diesel Furnace

[dowgars]

I havn't had it in extreme temps yet but expect it to be more than adequit especially with sleeping bag or bedding. I really don't know yet. Their is a bigger one than mine available.
Yes I have used catalytic heater in RV's for years ( must have proper ventilation) and I do not mean the Buddy. I mean Olympic because it is not open flame. I have found that anything but the smallest one puts out too much heat. I hate the noise off and on of the Suburban forced air in RV's and the Olymbic runs all the time. Yes I did have a low pressure line ran to the inside and comes out above the counter and has a quick disconnect.
The BBQ fitting is on the passenger side and is hidden. It also is a quick disconnect.
I'm low tech and don't have time to fiqure out pictures but I'm talking simple T's before and after the regulator in the propane box. (driver side). RD

I ordered the van as indicated above with three heating possibilities because I didn't know too much about the Propex. I have slept in the van only two nights with it on and it wasn't real cold so it didn't cycle much. It is definitely quieter than the suburbans I had. RD

Since activity in this topic, which I started as a newbee to the SMB Forum, appears trailing off, it is time to thank everyone for answering so many of my questions. I hope with all the new info now at hand I can make the right decisions about a furnace before that stalls the ongoing build. This forum is GREAT!

Reviving an old thread cause im trying to decide which way to go for a furnace... im suprised that nobody had mentioned the possibility of flexibility of use of alternative fuels for the diesel heaters, am I wrong that kerosene and different diesel fuels wouldn't work for each and every diesel heater? I know that the dickinson diesel boat heaters have that kind of flexibility.... anyone have an opinion on the Dickinson?
