That is basically the setup I have, but w/ a Wave 3 Catalytic Heater-1500 & 3000 BTUH off a tee to the propane line under the sink to a specially made rubber propane line w/ quick disconnect that sits behind the drivers seat & connects to the heater which I hang from 2 set screws mounted on the front table arm which allows one to aim the heater in a variety of angles to the rear. Unplug cold heater & stash under the bench seat or in the garage when not needed, which is most of the time.

I have never slept w/ it on overnight & obviously skylight & slider window are cracked for proper ventilation.

YMMV,

Mr. BZ-not a Propex, but 1/6+- the cost installed
