Hi, I think you have hit on all the negatives. I have a propane 
catalytic heater in my 78. I like it alot. No power consumption and 
no noise. I mounted it to a hinged plate so I can swing it aroud 
toward the rear bedroom at nite. Another fella on the site said he 
thought a 3" muffin fan would do well to move the heat around. I 
haven't tryed that yet. I built a panel covered with old carpet to 
close off the rear bedroom in our 31' AS. Than I only have to heat 
the front 2/3 of the trailer. The catalytic heater will do the job 
with outside temps down 20 degrees. I also tapped another thermostat 
into the line for the main furnace. It is in the kitchen.  The OEM 
thermostat is in the rear bedroom. I can set it for a low setting and 
it will kick in only if the catalytic heater doesn't keep up. That 
allows me to be out in evan colder temps. Thanx Arnie
