Expert Reply:

Since the Camco Olympian Wave 6 Catalytic Safety Heater for Mid-Sized RVs # CAM57341 uses LP gas as its fuel source it will create moisture like the LP Buddy Heaters. It is recommended to crack your windows near it to ensure a proper oxygen level. If oxygen levels drop in your camper the ODS sensor will shut the heater down to prevent the flame from extinguishing and producing carbon dioxide.

If you don't want to deal with moisture issues or have to run a vent for the heater to avoid the issues then you'll need to instead use an electric space heater.
