design
single-layer awning is easy, quickly installed and easy to carry. But at the same time, they do not resist rain and cold weather. This is a great option for those who travel on foot or warm weather.
two-layer consist of a light, often translucent material, which is covered with waterproof awning top. This type of design is much better retaining heat in cold weather and creates a "thermos effect", which allows you to keep the heat well at night even in winter with warm sleeping bags. You can get acquainted with the range on the site. This is the best choice for those who like to get out of nature not only in summer in dry weather.
awning material
The main technical characteristics of precipitation protection is water resistance
- up to 1500 mm - protects against light rain, but with strong will flow;
- 1600-2500 mm-will reliably protect even from light a long rain, but not from rain;
- 2500 mm more-will provide reliable protection against any weather conditions.
bottom material
to protect against dew, damp soil or water should be provided with the bottom. It must be made of special structured polyethylene with a water permeability of more than 2500 mm. The height of its "sides" should be at least 5 cm in order to protect you from adverse conditions. Also, for your comfort, we advise you to buy a good derivative mattress. You can choose the right one in our catalog.
arcs
Strong design will ensure your protection against strong wind and keeps awning into heavy showers or hail. Arcs are mainly divided into 3 species.
- Fiberglas - the most popular and cheap. Designed for simple sores in favorable conditions, but can break with gusts of wind or in heavy rain.
- Durapol - more durable and reliable than fiberglass, but cost more.
- aluminum - the most durable, but heavy.
Quality and functionality
When choosing your "portable shelter", you should also pay attention to grommets, pegs, zippers, seam quality, skelement and a vestibule.
grommets are holes with a metal ring to secure the tent with pegs.They should be securely sewn to the awning. Lightning should be of high quality and double -sided for your convenience. The seams of the awning and the bottom must be glued to isolate the interior space from the outside. The vestibule, in turn, can be a good advantage for you when choosing a particular model as it can put things and shoes when traveling.
