Living room

Square living area with an area of 6.25 sqm and a maximum height of 2.15 m.Door height: 1.70 m.

Pitching and dismantling

Traditional pitching and dismantling with poles. Follow the instructions stitched into the product’s cover.We recommend that 2 people pitch the tent.

Sun protection

The roof fabric has UPF 30 sun protection.Caution: be careful, as a large amount of UV rays can get in through a simple open door.

Ventilation

Three sides have an opening for better air flow. Each of the openings has a mosquito net to prevent insects from getting inside.

Wind resistance

We test all our living rooms in a wind tunnel on a turntable. The goal is to expose each side of our living room to the same wind intensity.Properly pitched, with the guy ropes deployed, this living room remains habitable in wind speed 6, measured at 50 km/h.

Waterproof and taped seams

We test our living rooms to validate their waterproofing. The first test is done in the laboratory, 3 hours under 200 litres of water per hour per sqm, equivalent to 200 mm tropical rain per hour. The second test is done in the field under real-life conditions by our teams. This living area is fitted with a polyurethane-coated polyester flysheet measuring 2,000 mm. It also has seams that have been waterproofed with heat-sealed strips, and a 140 g/sqm polyethylene groundsheet.

Repair

As designers and practitioners who love our playground, we care about the durability of our products. That's why all our tents are designed to be repairable. Spare parts and repairs for inflatable hoops are available at the workshop of your Decathlon store or on our website.

Poles and tent pegs

Poles - All our poles are made from fibreglass and undergo double quality checks. This guarantees some of the best resistance against breakage.Tent pegs - All our pegs are made of steel and have a diameter of 6 mm.
