TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

PROBLEM

1. CONDENSATION

2. SEAM LEAKAGE

3. MILDEW

4. REPAIRING A TEAR

5. FAULTY ZIPPER

6. FADING FABRIC

7. FLOOR CONDENSATION

8. USE OF STAKES

SOLUTION

Apply a generous amount of seam sealer on inside seams. Seam sealer may be purchased at any local sporting goods store.

To avoid mildew, store tent/screen house ONLY when thoroughly dry. However, if mildew occurs use a soft bristle brush or sponge with mild dishwashing soap or Fels 

Naptha soap to clean. Let dry thoroughly and a tent approved water repellent compound may be applied.

For small tears use a self-adhesive patch kit. We recommend a canvas or awning repair shop for larger tears.

Do not leave up in direct sunlight longer than necessary. If left in sunlight for prolonged periods of time, fabric will fade and weaken.

Stakes should be installed at a 45 degree angle using a hammer or mallet. Stake loops should be kept taut without over stretching fabric or webbing. This could cause 
tears or leakage. To remove safely, use a hammer or stake puller. Do not remove by pulling on the fabric.

This is caused by lower temperatures on the outside of the tent combined with body heat on the inside of the tent. When this occurs, avoid touching walls to reduce 
contact leakage. Leaving the doors and windows open will reduce moisture condensation. Store wet clothing outside of tent.  Not applicable to screen houses.

A ground cloth under the floor helps prolong its life, provides additional insulation and moisture protection. The cloth should be smaller than the floor to prevent rain 
from running under the tent.  Not applicable to screen houses.

Zippers are self repairing. If the zipper separates, you can move the slider to the beginning of the zipper tape and rework the zipper.
