The Problem with Moisture

If you’ve ever been camping in the colder months especially, you’ll most likely have experienced some form of condensation or dampness in any roof tent that you’ve camped in. This is a real problem for some people- and almost certainly if they’re not taking any measures to prevent it.

Condensation occurs when moist, hot air (water vapour) meets a cold surface, which turns it into liquid. That’s why this is particularly a problem in the colder Winter months because the tent walls will be colder during this period, therefore leading to more condensation!

This hot moisture can come from lots of people breathing (each person can exhale up to 1 litre of water vapour into the air), which obviously can’t really be helped! It comes from the moisture in wet clothes or gear evaporating into water vapour in the air. Then it can also come from the natural humidity in the air, which can vary depending on the area you’re in.

During the night, all of this moisture condensing in the roof tent can lead to it looking like the roof top tent is leaking if you’re not careful, which can get pretty annoying if it’s happening every night!

Stopping condensation is mostly about making sure there’s enough ventilation/airflow to blow the moist air out of the roof tent before it condenses on the tent walls, ensuring there’s as little moisture/water vapour in the air as possible and trying to reduce the amount of humid heat in the roof tent.

So far, the solution has been to keep the windows in your roof tent partially open to help airflow, which should help let the moist air escape out of the roof tent before it has the chance to condense on the tent walls. The more open they are, the more ventilation you’ll have, but then obviously you sacrifice heat with this, so it’s a balancing act between these to ensure that there’s less condensation, while you also stay nice and toasty! Ideally there will be some wind outside, so you can camp with your tent windows facing the wind to help the ventilation further, but this is obviously out of your control!

The Solution

This is where our extractor fan comes in. Utilising the intrinsic ventilation designed into your tent, you can zip up all your doors and windows and leave it to out Roof Tent Extractor Fan to pull fresh air in and evacuate cold, damp air and moisture, leaving you warm and dry. The key to happy camping when the weather is typically British!
