2021-2022 MY FIRST SUMMER AND WINTER LIVING IN A RV FULL TIME. I LIVE IN¬¬ COLORADO, PURCHASED A 2017 KEYSTONE MONTANA 5TH WHEEL 3811MS. THINGS I DID TO STAY COOL AND WARM. I TOOK ALL THE SHADES AND WINDOW CORNICE DOWN AND REPLACED ALL THE WALLS AND WINDOWS AREAS WITH FULL LENGTH INSUTLATED DRAPES, LOTS OF THEM.

SUMMER: I HAVE NO SHADE ON THE RV SO IT GETS HOT. I PURCHASED A SHADE COVER FOR THE ROOF OF THE RV.

WINTER: I HAD MY FIRST WINTER; AVERAGE DAYS 30s AND SINGLE DIGITS AT NIGHTS. I VERY SELDOM USED MY RV HEATER. THE RV NEVER GOT BELOW 50 AT NIGHT USING ONLY 2 AREA HEATERS ON LOW

PS THE RUG HEATERS HEAT THE FLOOR AND THE BASEMENT AREAS OF THE RV. I USED THESE DRAPES IN MY RV
