Electricity Extra?

Doesn't everyone leave the heating on in the van when they go out ?

I don't so, no, not everyone does. Mine rarely gets switched on as the van is really well insulated. 

I'd wager most leave the van heating on though.

I don't , 

We don't normally, if we're going out for the day, but may leave it on, in cold weather, if we're out for a short walk of 1/2 hr or so with the dog.

Well I don't....the van is well insulated and I use the app on my iPhone to switch the heating back on about an hour before we return....

Ours is on set temp in thermostat with alde heating so i guess it's not always on unless it drops below that setting. 

For us it depends. for 12 of the 14 weeks we are away I normally rack the heating down to 15C and it will come on rarely I expect. For our two weeks in December I will leave the heating on at around 17C when we do out

Yes otherwise it takes too long for the van to warm up again on our return. I do the same if running on no EHU. The real answer to stop excessive use of electricity and keep pitch fees low is to fit meters.

I doubt that on larger sites (rather than a CL) that it would make much difference PD. If there are 20 vans on site and 2 are using a full time heater in the awning 24/7 it probably means that al are paying an extra 30p or so

No, most vans are insulated to keep them warm. We have ours on thermostat at night and it rarely comes on. Yes even away last week. Don't understand the need for this heating " just because its free". Its just a reason for site fees to increase for us all because a few are wasteful. We should go to charging extra for Awnings etc to make it a more level playing field.
