The third generation Unicorn is tested to the extreme once again as it faces its coldest challenge ever inside the cold chamber at Alde’s climate centre. But how would it react to temperatures of less than minus 15?
Grade three testing – seeing how a caravan or motorhome can or cannot cope with extreme temperature – has been part and parcel of Bailey of Bristol’s testing ethos ever since adopting their Alu-Tech design in line with the launch of their Bailey Pegasus range in 2009.
Since then, each and every caravan and motorhome produced by Bailey has been subjected to the same stringent industry standard testing in order to ensure all Bailey caravans and motorhomes are able to cope with extreme temperature as seen in our new Bailey Unicorn hot test video available here.
Join CaravanTimes as we pay a visit to the Alde climate centre in Derbyshire, where we watch the new Bailey Unicorn put through its paces by dropping the external temperature in the climate centre’s cold chamber to minus 15 degrees Celsius and beyond, to find out just how long it takes for the new Bailey Unicorn’s thermal system to reach a toasty 20 degrees Celsuius inside, despite the chilling environment in which it is placed.
So sit back, relax and watch the anticipation rise as the temperature falls, to see whether Bailey’s third generation Unicorn really does have what it takes to be a caravan for all seasons.
