I have the fireplace as well but it will not heat coach alone without the furnace assisting when temps drop near freezing at night. One problem with fireplace is it is located in the rear where the living and dining area is. We have a mid bunk and the bath and master bedroom are in the front part of the coach.

That "Cheap Heat" is a pretty cool option if thats what you choose. I looked at the web site and cost is approx $850 depending on which one you choose. If you're comfortable with doing the install yourself, you can probably save a chunk of change because they quote labor to be as much as 8 hours. If you've got Coleman Mach a/c units, you might want look into adding the optional 1500 watt heating coil that is mounted in the supply airstream a few inches in front of the a/c cooling coil. Its pretty much a plug and play install and is available on Amazon. Thats what I installed in the ftont a/c unit of my 5th wheel and in conjunction with the electric fireplace, it keeps the entire camper comfortable. FYI, the heating coil is controlled by the a/c units thermostat. Of course when the outside air temp falls below 32 I will enable the furnace to run as needed. Good luck.
