IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND USER
CHECKS - PLEASE READ BEFORE
OPERATING THE ALDE BOILER:
1. Never operate the Alde boiler without
ensuring the heating system has
Antifreeze in it - Check the header
tank.
2. Check the level of antifreeze in the
Header Tank. When cold the fluid
should be 10mm above the minimum
mark.
If you need to top up your system via the
header tank use a 60/40 mix of water and
ethylene glycol, this can be purchased at
car accessory outlets nationwide.
3. Ensure glycol mixture is at
recommended strength. It not only
prevents freezing but also stops
corrosion and bacteria within the
system.
Blue antifreeze has a two year life.
4. Propane Gas is recommended as it
works at lower ambient temperatures.
Butane loses functionality below 10
degrees centigrade.
Total failure occurs at -2 degrees
centigrade when using Butane, this
applies to all LPG appliances.
5. The heating system can be operated
with the domestic water drained down.
6. If the vehicle is not in use and there is
a risk of freezing the domestic water
should be drained down.
7. Frost damage is not covered under the
Alde Warranty.
8. If leaving the caravan for long periods
of time without a 240v supply
connected then the 12v supply should
be disconnected.
The boiler draws a small 0.01amp in
standby mode. The circulation pump
draws 0.18amp when operating.
FAULT FINDING
• Check LPG - Sufficient supply?
Is the main tap fully open?
If the boiler has not been used for a long
period or Gas supply has been changed it
may take more than one attempt to start.
• Check that the boiler has 12v supply or
if using electric elements that you have
230v supply
The boiler is sensitive to current and
needs a full 12v supply check battery
level
• Check that the 2 amp fuse on the back
of the boiler is intact
• Check that the overheating protection
has not activated by unscrewing the
black cap on the back of the boiler and
pushing fully in.
Will not reset until the boiler has cooled
by 20 degrees centigrade - Ensure
system is bled of air before restarting.
(To bleed see operating instructions).
• Check that the Red LED on the Alde
control panel has gone out
If not switch off the boiler for 30 seconds
and try again
• Check all electrical connections are
pushed firmly home and wires
attached
