maintenance
The canvas must be bone dry before storing. Never keep the tent stored away wet for longer than 48 hours, otherwise
mould can affect the canvas which could create permanent little black dots. If your tent has not been set up correctly,
uneven forces could pull on the canvas, which could eventually lead to damage. To ensure your tent stays set up correctly,
daily guy rope maintenance is necessary. It is in your interest to keep the canvas as clean as possible and remove stains
when created. Dust and dried mud are best removed once the canvas is dry by brushing with a clean, hard brush.
lifespan
The lifespan of your tent is very dependent upon camping conditions. Air pollution, ultraviolet radiation, natural dirt (bird
droppings, sand, salt water) and domestic dirt (cooking stains, soda, wine, sun cream) could all limit the lifespan of your
canvas tent. Your Yurt Tent should last for many years if looked after correctly.
zippers
Zippers sometimes endure extreme tensions caused by wind, incorrect tent set up or pressure caused by people or objects
leaning onto the tent.
• Close all zippers before setting up your tent.
• Handle them with care.
• To keep them in top condition, treat them with zip lubricant from time to time.
• Ensure zippers are in working order before setting up your tent as the warranty does not cover damage after use.
waterproofing & leak prevention
The first time your tent gets wet it may leak a little around the seams, don't worry THIS IS NORMAL! Once it has fully dried
out the cotton will naturally shrink and close any tiny holes to ensure your tent becomes watertight. To preserve your tent' s
water resistance and prolong its lifespan the outside of the canvas can be re-treated with a sealant - available from our
online shop at Boutique Camping.
