What is the difference between single-layer tent and double-layer tent?

2023-02-24

The difference between double-layer tent and single-layer tent:


1. Production process is different

Single-layer tent production process is relatively simple.
Double-layer tent is in the single-layer tent design banter on the increase of a layer of breathable inner tent. The outer tent is waterproof and windproof, the inner tent is breathable; the heat emitted by the human body will pass through the inner tent, condense on the inner wall of the outer tent, then follow the inner wall of the outer tent, slide down to the gap between the outer tent and the inner tent, and will not wet the sleeping bag.



2, volume operation is different

Single-layer tent lightweight, small size, small footprint, easier to build.
Double-layer tent volume is larger, folded up to occupy more space, covering a larger area, more tedious to build.



3 、Use environment is different

Single-layer tent is mainly used for park leisure, beach leisure and other summer camping activities, generally do not spend the night outdoors, the price is relatively cheap.
Double-layer tent is generally used for outdoor camping overnight, due to the lighter weight, also be used for snow climbing, but need to use high-tech functional fabrics and accessories, the price is more expensive.


4 、How to choose?

Because in the cooler season, the human body excluded heat in the tent outside the role of air, will be condensed in the tent walls, water flowing down the tent walls will wet sleeping bags, and add the inner tent, the outer tent is not directly connected to the bottom of the inner tent, the heat emitted by the human body will be through the inner tent, condensation in the outer tent of water droplets can be DC ground. Therefore, the general ambient temperature above 5 ℃ is more suitable for the use of single-layer tent, when the ambient temperature is lower than 5 ℃, due to the tent wall will be water, so it is best to use double tent or three-layer tent.


Advantages of double-layer tent

Tents provide people with a place to rest when camping, as we all know, the temperature will be lower at night, so the tent first to be able to keep warm and windproof. And because of the temperature difference between day and night, the moisture at night will be very heavy, the tent should prevent the moisture from soaking through. Especially in the mountain forest in the morning and evening fog is particularly heavy, tent external moisture condensation is serious, if the fabric can not waterproof, the tent will seep out small beads of water, the environment is cold and wet, simply can not provide a good place for people to rest.
Because of the above two requirements for tents, single-layer tents can not adapt to camping use. Although the single-layer tent is also made of thick waterproof Oxford cloth, but only one layer, warmth and waterproof can not be tested for a long time, more can not adapt to the situation of rain. The double-layer tent is different, it is designed into two layers: the outer tent and the inner tent, with a space between the two layers. The outer tent to block the wind and rain, the inner tent to keep warm and dry, whether it is raining or snowing, can give travelers a place of peace of mind. And double tent outer and inner tent can be used separately, when the sun is high during the day, you can open the outer tent alone, it becomes a shade of the pergola.



Double tent how to pitch?

1, set up the tent before the first to choose a suitable camp, generally away from the river, the higher terrain, flat and windy place.

2, set up the first tent outside and inside the tent out, you can first set up the inner tent, you can also set up the outer tent and then drill to set up the inner tent. According to their own habits will be one of the layers laid flat on the ground.

3, the inner tent is laid out and then the peg bag, pole bag and other accessories out. First deal with the tent pole, will be a section of the tent pole docking on, articulation out to tighten, make two equal length of the long pole.

4, inside the tent for the tent pole through the pipe, the two long rods will be crossed through the opposite two pipes. The two long poles should be put on at the same time, midway the long pole will be arched upward due to the tent structure, so the tent is propped up into shape. This process requires at least two people, if four people will be more convenient to operate. When you put on the pipe, you should go from the bottom corner of one end of the tent to the bottom corner of the opposite side, so as not to miss a ring. Tent up will be the ends of the long pole inserted into the bottom corner of the ring, the whole inner tent is fixed.

5, after the tent is ready to hang the outer tent, the method is to open the outer tent, masked on top of the inner tent. The outer tent is designed to windproof rope, the rope will be straightened and fixed with windproof hook A can strengthen the tent solid, blowing wind will not lift the tent, the second can be pulled apart between the inner and outer tent gap, two layers of tents separated by more powerful warmth and moisture.
