    Heating a tent trailer

    I just recently picked up an old tent trailer. I am wondering if anyone has any sugestions of what to use to heat it without getting carbon monoxide poisoning.

    It is next to impossible to heat 6 uninsulated sides exposed to the cold. Check out http://www.mrheater.com/new/buddy.htm This heater is rated for use inside, heats up to 250 sqft. It has a low Oxygen sensor, and a tip over shut off. It can be used on a 1# or 20# cylinder. I paid $50 US for mine stateside from Lowe's, they retail for $129 Cdn in Parksville BC.

    This tent trailer did not come with a heater, I figuring it must be old if you know somebody in the rv trade that would be the person to talk to cold is a problem with those units, if it were mine I'd find a direct vent heater install it that way it only uses oxygen from the outside because of the two pipe system, inside pipe is exhaust outside is fresh air. Other than that Ringo's Idea is the way to go.
