Frequently Asked Questions

Reach Out

  • How do I care for and maintain a rooftop tent?

    Caring for your rooftop tent helps extend its life and maintain performance. After every trip, air it out and clean off dirt, dust, and moisture before storing. Check for signs of mould or mildew, and treat canvas or fabric with appropriate waterproofing sprays if needed. Keep zippers lubricated and inspect mounting brackets, bolts, and latches regularly. For hard-shell tents, wipe down the exterior to prevent buildup of grime and check the hinges. Proper care ensures your tent stays waterproof, clean, and safe for your next adventure.

  • Can I keep a rooftop tent mounted to my vehicle full-time?

    Yes, many people leave their rooftop tent mounted full-time, especially if they camp regularly. However, it’s important to consider the added weight and wind resistance while driving. A rooftop tent may slightly reduce fuel efficiency and can limit access to certain parking structures or garages. Also, prolonged exposure to the elements can shorten the tent’s lifespan if it's not made from weather-resistant materials. If you’re not using the tent often, removing it and storing it properly can help protect it and reduce wear.

  • Do rooftop tents affect fuel economy or vehicle handling?

    Yes, rooftop tents can impact fuel efficiency and vehicle handling, especially at highway speeds. The extra weight and aerodynamic drag may lead to increased fuel consumption. Heavier tents can also raise your vehicle’s centre of gravity, affecting stability when cornering or on uneven terrain. To minimise the impact, choose lightweight, low-profile models and make sure your roof rack is fitted correctly. Many off-roaders find the trade-off worthwhile given the convenience, but it’s a good idea to monitor your vehicle’s performance after installation.
