I‘ve had one in my last MH and first class no maintenance really and it does mean constant hot water you never run out no matter how long in the shower.

Totally recommend the Alde Flow. It does exactly what it is supposed to. Probably means you will use more water, as you will shower for longer, but nice to have the choice!

We have had it in our last two vans, as others have said it does give a constant flow of hot water but to be able to do this it needs to be operating on both gas and electric. If you don't have hook-up it is not much good. Saying that we have used it in warmer climates when the water in the fresh tank is at a higher temperature than in winter and we were able to shower no issues.
Not sure what the price is to retrofit but I doubt if we would spec it again in our next van. This may be because only two of us may be a different story for people with a large family all trying to shower in the morning.

Think this is a first on MHF, a consensus of an opinion and a positive one at that

Sounds like it’s one for the winter upgrade list

We have one after having a replacement alde system but don’t use it on the normal setting does the two of us,but works well if needed.

Ok, sobered up now

Alde flow..love it. On the odd occasion where we have had more than two of us showering, it has performed really well. To get the best from it we run it on the 3kw setting where permissible. Even when the temp drops a bit after a shower, the time you’ve dried off and got ready etc, the water is back upto temp anyway.

I was under the impression that it was continuous hot water but by the sound of it you still have to give it time to reheat?

We have one in our vehicle and it is fantastic.

Had it fitted by ALDE which included a heating fluid Change from the 2 year to the five year stuff

Not in between the first two showers you don’t have to Mark, and it all depends how long you take to shower obviously..it’s 12 mins for me, and when I am done the temp is still around the mid 60 mark. We take 20 mins for the two of us to shower and have never run it on leccy and gas together, just one or the other..may have to experiment with that.
