Description
What is transfer fluid?
Heat transfer fluid (HTF) is used in your RV floor heating system. As the name would suggest, heat transfer fluid is used to transfer heat from one place to another. Transfer fluid protects against freezing and carries a high boiling point. In your RVs case, this fluid would be transferring heat to your floor, keeping it warm during winter camping. Our heat transfer fluid is also ideal for solar, hydronic, and HVAC units. Our Century chemical transfer fluid will be what you need if you need to top up the transfer fluid in your RV heating system.
Our transfer fluid is propylene-glycol-based, featuring a low viscosity and a vibrant lime green color. This chemical is made from GRAS ingredients (Generally Regarded As Safe) with very low toxicity that is gentle on the environment. It is non-corrosive with a Ph balance between 8 and 10, so it will not cause damage to your heating systems, an important quality to have in the chemical you put in your heating systems!
A few important features to note about our Century chemical transfer fluid is that it offers a high boiling point and is stable over a wide range of different temperatures. It features high thermal conductivity, assisting in a more efficient transfer of heat through your RVs heating system. This transfer fluid can boast a high specific heat. Having a high specific heat means that it can hold a lot of thermal energy before the fluid itself changes in temperature.
Our transfer fluid comes in a 1 gallon just with easy-to-read measurements located on the side. Having your fluid introduced and your heating system prepared professionally is recommended.
Keep you and your RV toasty and warm during your winter camping trips with our transfer fluid. Our transfer fluid is available in 2 and 4 pack options of 1-gallon jugs. To pick up some transfer fluid for your RV, use our website or give our customer care team a call. If you have any questions, give us a call or contact us online.
FAQ:
Q: How Do You Confirm Your System's Antifreeze?
A:You can check the antifreeze color by looking at the expansion bottle for your Aqua-Hot heating system or draining a little from the drain valve. Aqua-Hot heating systems typically use either the Camco (pink color) boiler antifreeze or the Century (green color) brand products. The color your system has depends on the coach manufacturer and the model year of your motorhome.
Q: Why Does The Aqua-Hot System Use Boiler Antifreeze?
A: Unlike automotive antifreeze, boiler antifreeze has a higher boiling point and higher viscosity that helps lubricate the system, as well as the rust, scale and corrosion inhibitors. When properly used, it is capable of efficient and high heat transfer.
Q: How Do You Check Your Aqua-Hot Boiler Antifreeze Fill Level?
A: Antifreeze Fill levels are visually checked at the expansion bottle when the Aqua-Hot system is warm and level; the proper fill level is at the HOT line. Run your Aqua-Hot system to operating temperature. When it is warm and the coach is level, visually check the Aqua-Hot expansion bottle to see if the antifreeze solution is at the HOT mark. This gives you a true indication of the Aqua-Hot antifreeze solution level.

*Inspect your Aqua-Hot system monthly. Run your Aqua-Hot system to operating temperature. When it is warm and the coach is level, visually check the Aqua-Hot expansion bottle to see if the antifreeze level is at the HOT mark. This gives you a true indication of the antifreeze solution level.
*Motorhome manufacturers generally fill the Aqua-Hot with Century brand (green in color) or Camco brand (pink in color) boiler antifreeze. Don’t mix colors in your Aqua-Hot system. Mixing pink and green boiler antifreeze produces a brown color that may be confused with corrosion, creating unnecessary service expense.
