The heating of a winter tent is very important in low temperatures, when warm clothes are no longer able to warm up enough to feel comfortable. Winter tents with a stove are in demand among fans of winter fishing, geologists, rescuers and those who are forced to stay for a long time in the conditions of the Far North.
Heaters for winter fishing in the tent
Often fishermen use candles specially designed for heating to warm tents. They are extremely simple in operation, stand a little and provide enough heat to keep the temperature inside the tent at a comfortable level. However, when the frost approaches below -10 ° C, they become ineffective.
More practical in this case are gas furnaces for winter tents. These heaters work on balloon gas. They quickly warm up the space, for a long time they work without refueling. The downside of such equipment is its cumbersomeness.
Some fishermen in the old manner are using dry fuel, constructing burners on their own. To some extent it is effective, however, when burning, dry alcohol gives off a lot of unpleasant odors, which in itself is unpleasant. And with prolonged burning, you can even get poisoned and lose consciousness. Conclusion - better to look for an alternative to this method of heating.
Winter tourist tent with a stove
Today, for winter tourists and fishermen, very comfortable winter tents under the stove are designed. They are tall enough to stand in them in full growth, they are quite comfortable even at -20ºС and below "overboard". The stoves with which tents are equipped maintain the temperature inside the tent at + 20-22 ° C.
The tent itself is made of a two-layer fabric, which is impregnated with compounds that prevent the passage of cold wind and moisture from outside.
The entire structure of the tent is very light and durable. The frame is made of light metal or plastic. You can collect such a tent in only 20-25 minutes, it is very mobile, its weight does not exceed 10 kg. It can fit in it up to 10 people at a time.
In such a marching "house" you can not only sleep, but also prepare food, dry equipment, even use it as a mobile bath. For safety, the built-in spark arrester is responsible, so that ignition will not occur even with a prolonged lack of attention on your part.
