We don’t leave for Florida until after Christmas. During that time we can get quite cold on Long Island. We’ve already gone through as many as five bottles to six bottles of propane a month when the temperature is in the teens. A lot of it depends on how warm you like it inside the trailer. We keep our thermostat at 68°. A bottle of propane cost us $24 for 30 pounds so five bottles is about $125 per month Which is still a lot cheaper than those that have oil heat in their homes. At about 40 to 45 degrees the heat pump is not efficient and a lot of times it shuts off. So when it gets cold I wouldn’t count on it. With it now in the 50s outside at night we use the heat pump but when The heat pump can’t keep up the gas heat kicks in automatically as additional heat. overall it’s a pretty good system.
