Our 385 FL has very poor heating in the bedroom and bathroom. I installed a small furnace in the basement and used the bathroom , bedroom outlets for the ducts. The original ducts that came from the front are now used for heating the uninsulated basement. With a zoned system we are now toasty warm.

Wow - that's quite an HVAC upgrade. What furnace did you install in the basement?

Hi, I used a Dometic Hydro flame 12000 BTU small furnace. Mounted in right rear corner.
I put a return air grille in the wall between bedroom and half bath. The propane hose tied in at the exterior grille manifold.
