Nucamp charges $30 to ship 1 gallon of Alde fluid

It's $52 for the glycol itself. I'd like to order this on Amazon but don't have a way of knowing if what's on Amazon is the correct fluid. I just can't bring myself to pay $30 for shipping for one gallon of fluid. Where is everyone who has a 2021+ Tab with the NEW Alde fluid getting theirs?

The "Alde Truma" product on Amazon is the proper item.

Try a local dealership. Mine sells glycol for $48/gallon and you pick it up in your own containers. It’s a Wallburg RV.

I doesn't specify on Amazon if this is the new blue/green fluid, and not the old yellow stuff. Is this really the exact same fluid as what's in the jugs with Alde labels on the Nucamp website?

This is the new stuff. In the description it states, “Alde-branded glycol is recognizable by its blue-green color”

I bought 3 gals of this stuff this winter and did the switchover in my early 2021.

Thank you. Since I am not switching out coolant, and only topping off, I am nervous about mixing two different types. I ordered a gallon. Now I just need to figure out the best way to see the fill lines on the overflow reservoir behind the toilet - the lines are on the other side. I guess I need to find a small mirror! I'm going to add some electrical tape to the side when I am done, so I can easily see the min/max lines in the future.

Since your T@B is a 2021, just checking that you know that the glycol (Centry or Rhomar) needs to be replaced every two years (not just topped off)?

Mine is 2022, and it has the "new" glycol in it.

I get mine from a local dealer in Poncha Springs CO.  Still pricey but don't have to pay shipping.  Not sure if you are in the Denver Area, just guessing based on your handle, but a local dealer who sells T@bs or Airstreams, like Windish, will also have it.
