Troubleshooting Guide
PROBLEM SOLUTION
1.
CONDENSATION
This is caused by lower temperatures on the outside of the tent combined with body heat
on the inside of the tent. Leave the doors and windows open to reduce condensation
moisture.
2.
FLOOR
CONDENSATION To prevent floor condensation use a ground cloth. Placing a ground cloth under your
product will prolong its life. Ground cloth size should be slightly smaller than product
floor size.
3.
MILDEW To avoid mildew, put your tent away from wet or damp. However, if mildew occurs,
use a soft bristle brush or sponge with mild dish washing soap to clean.
Let the tent dry in the sunlight and apply seam sealer compound on outside seams.
4.
REPAIRING A
TEAR
For small tears use a self-adhesive patch kit.
We recommend a canvas or awning repair shop for larger tears.
5.
FAULTY ZIPPER
All of our tents are manufactured with zippers, which if the zipper separates, you can fix
it by moving the slider to the beginning of the zipper tape and re working the zipper,
if this doesn't work, you may order a replacement zipper from our parts department.
A local canvas or awning repair shop in your area may then install the zipper.
6.
SEAM LEAKAGE
To protect against seam leakage, apply a generous amount of seam sealer
On all interior seams.
7.
REMOVING
STAKES
Stake should be removed with another stake, hammer or stake puller, but never by pulling
on the tent. Avoid staking the tent so tightly that it stretches the fabric, over stretching may
cause stake loops to tear. Troubleshooting Guide
