Could someone please elaborate a little bit more about these switches? We have no documentation showing our Rig having Tank Heaters. And, if these switches are in fact for Tank Heaters, when they are on are they on all the time in the Summer as well or do the Strips have thermostats (when powered) and come on only when it is below 35 F?
Thanks

Yes, if you turn them on, they will be on all the time. there is no thermostat for them. do not use if tanks are empty. there must be liquid in the tanks.

your furnace is enough to keep the belly warm and prevent freezing. the tank heaters are in addition to the furnace and allow you to get that zero degree rating if you care to camp where it gets that cold.
