Alde's wet central heating system has been meticulously planned and installed to ensure you always enjoy the optimum temperature throughout your caravan.

The radiant, hydronic central heating offers many benefits:

• It heats every part of the caravan creating a warm and inviting environment
• The glycol heating fluid circulates quietly around your caravan ensuring the least amount of disturbance
• It works off both gas and electric power sources which, can be combined when required
• Low 12V battery consumes a low amount of energy, preserving your battery life
• Pipes and radiators are mounted discreetly behind furniture, optimising available storage

Safety and Security Features

• AL-KO ( ATC2 ) Trailer Control System - Anyone who has ever encountered critical driving situations when towing their caravan will know that the caravan reacts very sensitively at high speeds – and what the risks are! Even minor avoidance manoeuvres, side winds on bridges or wind pressure when overtaking trucks can soon cause the trailer to start snaking. ATC AL-KO Trailer Control actively counteracts such phenomena!
• AL-KO AKS 3004 Stabiliser - Suppresses the initial signs of caravan instability and improves ride comfort. Four specially designed friction pads work to effectively suppress the initial signs of caravan instability and snaking movements, providing excellent ride comfort for your car and caravan combination.
• AL-KO secure wheel lock
• Phantom VanGuard remote control alarm system with PIR and tilt sensors for added security  ( fob controls the awning light )
• Optical smoke alarm
• Carbon monoxide detector
• CRIS ID number and concealed security data ID chips
• High security locking system
