I understand a second 30A for an AC ujit but if you need space heaters uou done need the AC unit running.
I agree, you now need two separate outlets, why not just upgrade your existing panel to 50 amp, then you can have on 240 volt circuit.

My dad was a Firefighter so grew up with a distaste of using portable electric heaters.
Our rig had a 50 amp service so I installed RV Comfort Systems “Cheap Heat” electric add on to the furnace.
