Polar package

Actually, I've wondered about the heating of the underbelly without the furnace running. If using an electric heater inside the cabin and the temp is like 65, then the cold/fresh air intake inside the cabin is going to be pulling that 65 deg temp through the ducting, past the tanks, like designed for furnace use. Obviously one would have to keep the furnace fan on even if the gas is shut off. Not sure, but I believe that's the thought of the engineers when they designed it, the ducting is what is suposed to keep the tanks from freezing. Just a thought, cause our current SRX with the polar package is the first cougar we have owned, have not camped in severe temps yet.
