CARE INSTRUCTIONS

3 Tips For Protecting Your Tent During Long-Term Use

Our tents are built tough to withstand almost anything that Mother Nature may toss at them. Leaving up a canvas tent for weeks on end is possible to do, however, it does require a mindful approach to the set-up, care, and maintenance - especially in humid environments.

Below are key considerations for successfully leaving up any canvas tent for more than a couple of weeks at a time.

1. Site Preparation

The ideal tent site will have good sun exposure, natural water drainage away from the tent, is free of foliage, is located in a natural breezeway, and is of course on flat ground. Each of these features helps to combat the growth of mold, enemy #1 to canvas.

Building a wood platform helps to raise a tent off of the ground, away from standing water and mud. If a platform isn’t an option, then laying down a quarter minus gravel is a great affordable base to create good water drainage. We would also suggest a tent fly.

Strongly consider a tent fly cover to extend the life of your canvas by providing protection from long-term exposure to UV rays, discouraging your canvas from long-term dampness, and also helping to insulate your tent during hot or cold temperatures. A fly cover can even be temporarily installed when your bell tent is not in use to give your tent extra life and reduce exposure from Mother Nature.

2. Regular Maintenance

Rain, birds, trees, leaves wind and the sun will impact the condition of your bell tent after you initially set it up. You will want to monitor and care for your canvas tent regularly to maximize the return on your investment.

  • Reduce humidity being trapped inside the tent by increasing air circulation or adding heat. Open windows, regularly run a fan or periodically use a heater, dehumidifier, or A/C unit to dry out the inside. Avoid cooking or leaving wet items inside.
  • Cut back all foliage - at least 2-3 feet from the canvas of your tent. Avoid allowing damp grass or leaves from having prolonged contact with the canvas.
  • Retreat the waterproofing of your canvas after every 12-16 weeks of continuous use (especially in humid climates) with 303 Fabric Guard to repel moisture. It is time if the water does not bead and roll off the canvas.
  • Quickly clean off mold, tree sap, dirt, leaves, or bird droppings with Iosso Mold & Stain Remover (and apply 303 Fabric Guard afterward).
  • Regularly tighten guy lines and re-drive in the pegs as needed.
  • Take your tent down when it won't be used for several weeks in a row.
  • NEVER pack up your tent wet or damp.

3. Anticipate Antagonists

Critters and snow are a couple of foes that you will want to plan on keeping at bay. Raccoons, squirrels, mice, and bears may be envious of your cozy shelter but generally will stay away. But they will become curious and attempt to claw their way in if you keep food, beverages, or other appetizing scents inside of your tent.

Bell tents can do well in the snow if you are able to monitor them regularly and keep your tent structurally sound. Just a few inches of snow can add over 2,000 lbs. of snow load to the center pole, which is enough to cause the pole to bend or break - it pokes through the ceiling. Therefore, we’d recommend periodically cleaning snow from the roof as it accumulates, or heating up the tent to help the snow to melt off. To reduce the concern of snow removal, you could create a custom 4” center pole out of hardwood to give added strength and greater peace of mind. Learn more tips by reading our snow camping article.

We have had many successful customers keep our tents up year-round by mindfully monitoring them. Many people take their tents down for a couple of months to help simplify the maintenance process and extend the life of their tents.

Hopefully, this list will help whatever canvas tent you purchase to last for many, many years!
