It is important to ventilate the tent, so open the windows even when it is cold outside. Some people think that they can prevent condensation by fitting an inner tent, covers for the frame poles, etc. But this doesn't solve the problem condensation will always be there.
Our advice is:
- Ventilate enough during the night even if it rains.
- Buy an anti-condensation mattress.
- Open all windows and doors of the rooftop tent as soon as you wake up. This allows everything to air and dry properly.
- Take your time, you are on holiday and if it is dry outside, most of the condensation will be gone in 20-30 minutes with everything open.
- Are you in a hurry or is it also very humid outside: carefully wipe the canvas with a towel on the inside to dry (The coated polycotton rip stop canvas cannot leak like ordinary cotton)
- When you arrive at your next location, unfold the tent as quickly as possible so that it can air further and you will have a 100% condensation-free tent when you go to bed.
