Miami Tent Company understands how important properly maintaining your tent is. Inspecting and taking care of obvious defects in the tent fabric and hardware as well as proper tent set up and take down is vital steps that every tent owner should follow. It also consists of interacting with customers about where the tent will be set, potential blockages like overhead wires along with possible temperature level modifications.

Even correct upkeep of your vehicles utilized to provide and set up the tent is very important. Following are some practical pointers on how to take care of your party event tent in order to accomplish the longest life possible.

Expert Tip # 1 Don't get it dirty

That is easier said than done but a good starting point. If possible, constantly have a drop cloth available and keep the vinyl dry. If you do get it dirty we recommend spreading the tent out on grass, get wide nylon bristle brooms, take your shoes off, spread non concentrated laundry cleaning agent over it include water and get to work. That will take the majority of the dirt off.

You can experiment with different area cleaners for stained locations. Test a smaller area first. For other difficult areas you can make use of 3 parts water 1 part Clorox to scrub with. Do one panel at a time and after that clean off immediately, otherwise it will remove the gloss from the vinyl. You can utilize this very same mix of Clorox and water on underside, where seat belts show, and actually let it dry without cleaning off. This will combat mildew in the future.

Many bigger rental companies will use industrial cleaning machines for their event tents. This is a terrific alternative for fast cleaning but use care. This procedure is quick but can also wear the tent vinyl out quicker. It can also cause lace lines to expand and trigger the tent to not stretch out inappropriately.

Expert Tip # 2 Check and repair obvious damage or problems at first sight

While taking your tent down it is important to check for wetness. Water and wind are your worst enemies. Mold-resistant fabrics will help in reducing the premature destruction of your gorgeous wedding event tent, however there are no guarantees with this technology. Over time, it is likely that some of your older party tents will not be as "mold resistant".

After every tent has been taken down and the tent top/sidewall vinyl has been examined, it is necessary to check each one of the poles/hardware as well. Patch rips, cuts and splits before they expand and cause additional damage. With your hardware, particularly hardware that touches the vinyl, wipe it clean prior to use to secure against vinyl from discoloration. All webbing, stitches, joints, steel rings & snap hooks ought to be examined to make sure they are in excellent working order. Stakes ought to be straight and ropes or truckers ratchets need to be in great condition.

Expert Tip # 3 Proper storage

The best option would be to have your tent put on pallets and then up on some kind of "racking system". This would enable air circulation between the tent bag and the floor and prevent moisture from getting into the tent bag and tent. You do not want your tent vinyl on the floor. It is extremely simple to pick up wetness and trigger discoloration on the product. If you don't have a "racking system" you would have to utilize a water resistant tarpaulin on the floor and put the tents on top of it.

Any tent that is taken down wet needs to be completely dried out prior to storing. Also, it is crucial to not fold your sidewall in the very same place every time. This will certainly help extend their life.
Temperature also can influence tent storage.

Miami Tent Company have delivered our pole tents to 143 different countries and possessions all over the world. That covers about any climate you can imagine. If you are storing your tent over the winter season, avoid moving if possible. Do stagnate them if your outdoor storage structure area is less than 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.5 degrees Celsius). Once you bring them from storage, allow them to sit overnight in a warm room 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15.6 degrees Celsius) prior to removing them from their storage bag.
