If you have a stove in that trailer I'd just light the burners. Make sure you're getting a little fresh air from somewhere.

I would just buy a cataylic heater that runs off a little propane tank. Coleman sells them as black cats. I got the radiant heat style one and it works great.
I dont use it often but when i do, its a blessing

Slacker;
You might want to check and see if the walls/ceiling/floor are insulated. It would heat alot easier if it was.
Rather a large space to heat...... in my neck of the woods (Northern Mn), I'd be looking at something vented that put out more BTU's. 20-30,000 BTU....... Just a thought.

I would not use the stove burners for heat. [safety issue}.instead buy the mr. buddy heater. it puts out plenty of heat. you can use a 1lb. cylinder or the optional hose and a 5 or 20 lb. propane tank. if that don't work create your own heat. after all it is the LOVE SHACK. haha.
It's not how deep you fish, but how you wiggle your worm !!!
