When testing the central heating a few days ago on my Alde HE3020 boiler 2018 Challenger 480ALDE Caravan, Using 1kw of 240 volt supply choice, I heard a noise coming from the toilet compartment where the Alde reservoir fluid is...Through the inspection window I could see largish bubbles in the fluid. After about 10/15 minutes everything seemed to calm down and the bubbles and associated noise, stopped and settled. Is this a sign that there is an air lock occurring in the system and needing bled. If so how do you do it and from where in the system..Assistance appreciated.

    If you look in the toilet or at the back inside the van you should see a bleed nipple you have to drop the front of your as far down as poss so all the air goes to the rear  in the heating system and then you can bleed it if you look it up online it tells you how to do it

    Thank you stampman I’ll try that. I presume from your posting that my original posting is correct and that the bubbles and gurgling noise that happened for 15 Minute period , was air in the system.
