The tent

Caring for your sauna tent properly can help extend its life and preserve its quality. Follow the care tips below to ensure your tent remains durable and in good condition for a long time.

Cleaning

• Before you start cleaning the tent, make sure it is completely dry.
• Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt and loose debris from the surface of the tent.
• If necessary, you can use a mild soap solution to remove stubborn stains. Apply the soapy solution with a sponge or soft brush and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Avoid using strong chemicals, bleach or detergents that can damage the fabric.
• Don't forget to also clean the zippers and the tent poles, especially if you've been basking by the sea as sand and salt can damage the metal parts and rust can occur.

Drying

• After using your sauna tent, allow the tent to dry thoroughly before packing it away. Dry the tent with a towel, Place it in the shade or spread it out on a clean and dry surface.
• Make sure the tent is completely dry both inside and out to avoid mold and mildew formation.
