I just scooped up a nice enclosed to use for sledding season.. where is the best place to pick up a propane wall direct vent heater? going to outfit it with storage cabinets, helmet holder, tie downs for superclamps, and so on.

I installed a 34000 btu suburban rv style furnance. Works great and safe. Got it out of the usa for around $600 brand new. The bracket was made by a guy in red deer alberta but grassland trailer sales it were i got mine. I also did a ac/dc Panel so I can run the heater off of my truck or plug it into my house at home. The heater, propane tank,ac/dc Panel came from RV Parts, RV Accessories RV Supplies Priced Low. If you have any questions i'll do my best to help. I got pics of my install if you want to check it out. I got my cabinets from TrailerCabinets.com | Quality Aluminum Cabients :: Home

I'll second that, we had the dealer put a 25K btu rv heater in our trailer and it takes about 10 minutes for it to get warm inside. Nothing like getting dressed inside a nice warm trailer when it's 0 and the wind is howling. Don't forget to insulate it otherwise your wasting your money on a heater.

Here's some pics of my trailer. That table in the first 2 pics can be dropped down so it's not in the way when loading and unloading sleds/atvs.
