If you have your coach plugged in at home to keep the fridge cold in between trips, then I would keep the propane on just incase of power failure. That way, you don't lose the stuff in your fridge/freezer.

If the coach is being stored with all the electric/battery power off and fridge/freezer empty, then I would turn off the propane too.

I've never shut mine off in seven years.

It's hard to use gas appliances when it's turned off but you can if you are not using anything that runs on propane.

I keep mine on to keep the system pressurized to prevent moisture from getting into the lines. If there are no leaks it doesn't hurt to leave it on.
