FAQ
Is the hardware for mounting the tent included?
To locate the mounting kit, you can check the front pocket of the tent. This pocket usually contains a tool kit as well, so you can easily find both items in one place. The mounting kit comes in handy when you need to set up the tent or attach any additional parts to it. It usually includes screws, bolts, and other necessary hardware needed for the tent’s assembly.
Are there any special reminders about the precautions for staying over night in a roof tent?
The roof tent is constructed from a waterproof material that is not breathable. It is recommended to keep at least one window partially open for ventilation and to minimise condensation.
How should I clean or treat the tents body?
When it comes to cleaning your SkyPod Roof Tent, it’s important to use a cleaner and waterproof treatment that is specifically designed for the type of synthetic fabric used in most tents. We suggest that you clean and treat your tent at least once a year to keep it in good condition. Additionally, you should clean any parts made of fabric using a soft brush and/or air compressor to remove any dirt or debris.
How should I store my rooftop tent long term?
There are several recommended ways to store your SkyPod Roof Tent, but before doing so, it is important to ensure that the tent is fully dried out. In case you have to pack up a wet tent when leaving camp, make sure to open it up and dry it out as soon as you get back home. This is because mould and mildew can form if the tent is left wet for too long.
When removing the SkyPod Roof Tent, it is recommended to get another person to assist you. This will help prevent any injuries or possibly damaging your vehicle. If you have to remove the tent by yourself, it is advisable to use a hoist system.
If you have to take your SkyPod Roof Tent off and store it in your garage, make sure you never set the tent down on the floor, which could damage the exterior PVC cover. Always use a foam pad to sit the SkyPod Roof Tent on, and yes, it’s okay to set most models on their side.
One thing people don’t think of is wrapping the tent up in a tarp to prevent rodents from damaging the fabric. The best recommendation is to wrap the tent in stretch wrap to protect the fabric from moisture, dust, and insects.
Is it easy to install a SkyPod roof tent?
Your new SkyPod Roof Tent is designed to be easy to install and should take no longer than 30 minutes. You will need an extra pair of hands to assist you in lifting it onto your roof bars, but after that, it’s simply a matter of sliding in the fixing brackets and tightening the nuts.
How do I know if a SkyPod will be compatible with my vehicle?
SkyPod models are designed to fit a wide range of vehicles, from small cars to SUVs. If you’re considering a SkyPod for your vehicle, you’ll first need to check your vehicle’s roof load limit to make sure it can support the weight of the SkyPod and any cargo you plan to carry inside. This information should be available in your vehicle’s owner’s manual or online. Once you know your roof load limit, you can choose the appropriate SkyPod model for your needs.
