FAQ's
Q. Do rooftop tents use more fuel?
A. Adding weight and wind resistance will impact your fuel economy, however our lightweight rooftop tents are built from lightweight materials with a low profile design to significantly reduce the impacts on fuel usage. The few extra dollars will be worth the comfort and convenience when you get there!
Q. Which roof racks do I need to support a rooftop tent?
A. The best choice of roof rack is a roof bar/crossbar system. Two to three crossbars are sufficient to hold most rooftop tents. It’s recommended to check your vehicle manufacturer’s specifications before installation.
Q. Are rooftop tents water and weatherproof?
A. Yes, all reputable rooftop tents are constructed of ripstop canvas which is tested to withstand the most torrential rain. In high winds, it is recommended to roll away the awning, and for a more comfortable sleep, park your vehicle so the roof is facing the direction of the wind.
Q. Can I leave a rooftop tent on my car year-round?
A. There is absolutely nothing wrong with leaving your rooftop tent permanently installed on your vehicle. If it is going to be subject to weather all year round, it is important to wash and protect the tent regularly as you should do with your vehicle to reduce fading and
deterioration.
Q. How much weight can a rooftop tent hold?
A. While each rooftop tent is designed differently, hard shell rooftop tents with the appropriately rated gas struts can hold up to 50kg of dynamic load to be on the roof while driving, and up to 30kg to be maintained on the roof when it is open.
