Keep an eye on battery voltage. Around 13-13.4 is a safe voltage.

On all coaches, the inverter/charger is directly connected to the House battery bank. There is a manual house+chassis connect switch in the battery bay on later model coaches. If you don't want your Vansco powered up while in storage, you can simply connect both battery banks via the manual switch. Then the chassis batteries will also be maintained, even with both battery disconnect switches off. This applies to AGM or flooded battery types.
If you have lithium house batteries, then you probably have a DC-DC charger, or other charger, to maintain the chassis battery. In this case, there is no need to have the Vansco powered on. You could keep the chassis and house disconnects off, and all batteries will all charge fine.
