Weathering an Outwell® Polycotton Tent
Should I weather my Outwell polycotton tent?
Tested under severe conditions
To ensure we meet and exceed family expectations in terms of stability and security, we have invested heavily in our own wind and rain facilities located at our Danish head office and all our Outwell tent collection designs undergo stringent tests to ensure reliable performance.
Valve Maintenance - Air beds and Air tents
Air beds, inflatable tents and even some rubber boats often use an air intake valve similar to the one pictured here. They are very simple and reliable.
Cleaning of spots
A tent is subject to all sorts of abuse but forget wind and rain, a question we're often asked is how to shift bird droppings and tree sap. Well, we've got some suggestions.
Field repairs
Your tent is subjected to a fair bit of abuse over the camping season and, while designed and built to withstand the rigours of family life outdoors, problems can arise.
How to control condensation
Our polyester tents are designed and tested to stand up to storms and keep out water through use of PU-coated fabrics with taped seams. However, if our materials keep water out then it stands to reason that water cannot escape. This leads to condensation

We tailor Outwell fabrics to meet the specific needs of the targeted family camper.
