Hello Pedro, thanks for reaching out. For that you will definitely want to use a thermostat controlled heater like a RV compartment or bilge heater. I am not sure the size of your RV but you would probably want to go with at least two of the following:
- Xtreme Heaters RV Basement and Boat Bilge Heater - Large - 800 Watts # XH94FR
This has an automatic thermostat. It kicks on at 45 degrees and turns off at 55 degrees so it will keep any lines from freezing. It would be safe to leave under the RV unattended during the winter months. You will also want to make sure the skirting it in act and cover any holes that could be letting cold air in.
What RV do you have? What size is it?
