Alde Heat Exchanger
The Kon Tiki range of motorhomes is fitted
with an Alde heat exchanger, which transfers
heat from the engine of the motorhome
(when available) to the heating system in the
habitation area of the motorhome.
The diagram below shows a typical heating
circuit, with the heat exchanger highlighted.
The heat exchanger provides a link, via a
series of plates, between the engine coolant
fluid from the base vehicle, and the glycol fluid
in the Alde heating circuit: At no time though
do these two fluids mix, so the levels of each
fluid must be maintained separately.
To use the Heat Exchanger
The Alde heating system must be switched on,
while the motorhome engine is running, to use
the heat exchanger. The following settings on
the Alde control panel are suggested:
Turn Alde heating system ON using power
button at bottom left of panel
Press MENU button at bottom right of panel
Using the MINUS ( - ) and PLUS ( + ) touch
screen settings on the top row of the panel
(Thermometer symbol) to select a desired
room temperature.
During en-route use the water temperature
setting on the second row of the touch screen
(Shower symbol) is not relevant, and can be
left in its previous setting.
