IMPORTANT:  
 

Under certain conditions all tents will suffer from internal 
condensation.  Depending upon the atmospheric conditions, 
the weather and the amount of moisture in the ground, the 
condensation could be quite severe and is commonly mistaken 
for leaking, especially as it can run down the inside of the roof 
and drips off ties tapes and other internal fittings.  If you 
suspect your tent is leaking it is almost certainly condensation. 
 
The tent material has a waterproof PU coating over its entire 
surface and the main seams of your tent have been factory 
taped to help prevent leakage. 

 Depending upon your 

expectations, it may be necessary to treat the remaining seams 
with a seam sealant.  Seams treated with seam sealant cannot 
leak.  Seam sealant should also be applied to areas where the 
taping is damaged or has peeled away through wear and 
tear.  It can also be applied to areas where a leak may have 
developed.  Seam sealant is available from your dealer.
