Hot water for the whole family with Alde Flow
Ensuring that there is enough hot water in your caravan or motorhome is especially important if you are camping off-grid, have done any sport activity or simply not want to use the service house at the campsite. The problem is that a standard hot water heater does not hold much water, which is a limitation if you and your family shower directly one after another.
Alde Flow - an extra hot water heater
Alde Flow is an extra hot water heater that you connect to your Alde Compact 3020HE*. It has hot water capacity for 3.5 litres of continuous hot water per minute. That is equal to 40ºC continuous hot shower if there is access to fresh water.
This is how it works
- Cold water is preheated in the Alde Flow and pumped on into the boiler’s hot water heater.
- The preheated water is heated to about 65ºC by the boiler’s high-efficiency gas burner / electric heater.
- In the thermostat mixer, hot water is mixed with cold water to a comfortable temperature for showering, hand washing etc.
