Any other suggestions? I have camped in 30-32 degree lows, but the few degrees here may make all the difference...

Not knowing for sure what year model your Cougar is, if it's a relatively newer model (with the upgraded Polar Pack), you should be fine down to about 25F (possibly lower) as long as you leave the furnace running. The "heat loss" through the floor registers and that small 2" hot air duct should keep the sub-floor spaces warm enough to prevent any freeze damage. Keep in mind that there is a tremendous heat loss through all the big single pane windows, so don't expect to be "toasty warm" sitting next to one of those "arctic vents" LOL
