Hi W & C,
As Tammy said above we are in a learning curve. We have had Elly Mae 1 month today. Just to give some feedback to you about your freezing water. We do have a different model, but your water lines should still be insulated and in the floor only. Any virtical water lines should be inside cabinets. If you have not done so, insulate those - makes a big difference. They may still ice up, but ours has been far from frozen solid. We also had the same issue with cold walls in our slide out. For us, the slideout of concern was the living room where we have our recliners. We ordered a 110 Volt, plug-in baseboard heater to take the chill off the floor and wall. THIS DOES NOT HEAT THE ROOM directly, but does have some affect. However, the people and the cat love this area as there is no cold draft (or greatly reduced). I would recommend one. We ordered ours from Northern Tools and had it in a few days. They have several models - many direct wire. Be sure to look for one with a plug-in. Tammy mentioned our LP issues. Have you all had any propane issues? When we were in Bethel and temps approached -30, we had propane issues in the stick house there as well. Keep us posted and we can continue to exchange sub-artic camping tips. Like you, we really enjoy this.
Bernie
