Flomasta 0623 Concentrated Central Heating Inhibited Antifreeze 5Ltr

Product Information

For the FEB24 range, prise off the boiler white front cover (it has 2 pop studs on each side) and drop the plastic lower panel by removing 1 or 2 screws on the front of the panel and 2 on the underside. For the GB range the process is much simpler – there is a flap between the plastic lower cover and the metal cover – simply open the flap, undo the screw/s, clip the flap closed to retain the screws. The whole plastic cover will drop down on a hinge. However even the most brilliant inventions need maintenance! Some of the most commonly asked questions to the Alde team and also to our staff here at Leisureshopdirect is what type of antifreeze should I be using in my vehicle; how often should I change antifreeze and how do I change it? Hopefully the Alde Antifreeze information below will help you out if you have been contemplating the need to change the antifreeze in your motorhome or caravan.

days later – the boiler is now repaired – further frustration can occur when the water delivery for their first shower in days is luke warm and variable in delivery! The immediate conclusion is that the boiler is broken, again! In reality it is the internal damage caused to the shower mixer due to exceeding its operating pressure. This device will not leak water when damaged but will cause the hot water delivery at all showers and taps to be compromised until it is replaced. So, the next thing that comes to mind is how to do an Alde coolant or Alde antifreeze change. To do this you will need a 12V Leisure Battery, a waste hose, an Alde Service Pump and obviously the Ethylene Glycol G13 Antifreeze and the de-ionised water. Older types of caravan antifreeze require you to change your antifreeze fluid once every two years but the Alde G13 antifreeze can be changed every 5 years. If you are unsure what type of fluid has been used in your van, then it is recommended to change the existing fluid to G13 after 2 years of purchasing it (it is highly recommended to do this if your fluid is not pink in colour).

Why Are There Different Colour Antifreezes?

Protecting the pipework that comes out of the boiler with insulation is also important as they can also be susceptible to freezing. Won't this increase my energy bills? We’re often asked about how and when to change caravan antifreeze . Let us explain all with our guide below.

your engineer calls Morco from the home to be advised that the problem they are describing is frost damage and is therefore not covered by warranty. Open heating systems: partially drain the system to provide enough volume to accommodate the X500 and feed the product into an area of adequate flow or use a by-pass feeder.

Can I Mix Different Types of Caravan Antifreeze?

The most common cause why pipes burst in winter is if a pipe full of water is cooled so much that the water freezes, its volume will increase, which will cause pressure on the inside of the metal pipes that, if sufficient, will eventually break the pipe. Can you live in a static caravan in winter?

The formulation is Ideal for systems that remain vulnerable to low temperatures, while providing the same highly efficient corrosion inhibiting chemical technology of our other powerful inhibitor products. Central Heating System Inhibited Anti-Freeze will protect even the most complex of mixed metal systems against limescale, corrosion and frost.

Petrol and Kerosene

Ideally, as part of such protocols, new systems and those up to 6 months old should be cleaned with Sentinel X300 and older systems with Sentinel X400 or Sentinel X800 Fast Acting Cleaner. For systems or parts of systems (such as under-floor heating circuits) which operate at temperatures below 60ºC it is beneficial to sanitise the water circuits using Sentinel X700 following cleaning and flushing with the above products. If the system is already noisy due to limescale deposits in the heat exchanger, Sentinel X200 should be added together with Sentinel X500. In systems which operate below 60ºC or spend extended periods out of commission, the addition of Senticide X700 to provide long term protection from bacterial activity should be considered.
