Naturehike Massif Hot Tent with Stove Jack - 2 Person, 4 Seasons Winter Camping Tent

1. Understanding Stove Jack Material Limits
Most hot tents use fire-resistant fabric around the stove jack to handle brief contact with heat or flames. However, prolonged exposure to a hot stove pipe can cause this fabric to degrade or burn. The seams in this area are also vulnerable to heat damage. To maintain safety, always keep stove pipes from pressing directly against tent fabric, especially for extended periods.

2. Secure Your Stove Properly
To avoid accidents, always stabilize your wood stove. Unsecured stoves can shift, tip, or spark—potentially burning your tent or gear. Anchor the stove legs using pegs, and for taller chimney setups, use guy lines and a spark arrestor to improve stability and minimize wind interference.

3. Ensure the Tent is Fully Anchored
Before operating your stove, make sure your tent is solidly pitched. Use all included anchor points and guy lines. If your tent includes a snow skirt, add soil or rocks for extra weight and wind resistance. A properly set up tent provides the foundation for safe stove use.

4. Avoid Heat Damage at the Stove Base
Over time, heat will build up under the stove. Avoid placing any fabric, insulation, or flammable items beneath it. Keep the area clear to reduce fire risk.

5. Use Dry Firewood Only
Wet or oily firewood can cause incomplete burning, leading to sticky creosote buildup inside the stove pipe. This is difficult to clean and can affect performance. To avoid this, pre-dry your firewood near the stove before use.

6. Prevent Spark Damage to Tent Fabric
Sparks may escape from the chimney during use and can damage the tent. Install a spark arrestor at the top of the pipe to reduce this risk. Also, avoid stirring or overloading the fire unnecessarily, which can send sparks flying.

7. Use Fire-Resistant Wrap Where Needed
Wrap the stove pipe at its exit point with fire-resistant tape to prevent the fabric around the chimney from overheating. You can also wrap the bottom section of the pipe to reduce the chance of accidental contact burns—especially important when children are present.

Essential Safety Equipment for Hot Tent Camping

1. Use a Carbon Monoxide Detector
Wood stoves can produce carbon monoxide if burning is incomplete. Always use a portable CO detector inside your tent to alert you if dangerous levels are reached.

2. Carry a Portable Fire Extinguisher
Be prepared for emergencies. A small fire extinguisher can help you quickly manage sparks, a tipped stove, or extinguish your fire when packing up. If a fire extinguisher isn’t available, keep water or a fire blanket on hand as a backup.

What defines "waterproof" in a tent, and what does the "mm" rating mean? 

For a Naturehike tent, "waterproof" means that all external fabric has been coated with exceptional polyurethane coatings, and the seams are watertight right out of the bag. The "mm" refers to millimeters and is paired with a number to represent a standardized measurement of a coating's waterproofness. For instance, a 1500mm coating will withstand a 1500mm (5') column of water for more than one minute before a single drop might appear through the fabric. This level of protection is strong enough to prevent rain from leaking into a tent during a hurricane-force storm.

What do the letters D and T after the fabrics mean? 

"D" stands for Denier, a numbering system for fibers, filaments, and yarns. In this system, lower numbers are lighter/finer, and higher numbers are heavier/coarser. "T" stands for Thread Count, specifically the number of warp and fill threads in a square inch. Lower numbers represent a loosely woven fabric, and higher numbers represent a tightly woven fabric. These two numbers together help indicate the strength and feel of a piece of fabric.

What's the best way to clean my tent? 

Cleaning your tent is not necessary unless it has an offensive odor or becomes heavily soiled. If heavily soiled, the pressure from a regular garden hose will remove most loose dirt. For more severe cleaning, set up your tent and hand wash it with warm water, a sponge, and mild, non-detergent soap. Do not use dishwashing liquid, detergent, bleach, pre-soaking solutions, or spot removers. Rinse well. Dry your tent by pitching it or line-drying it. Never dry clean, machine wash or machine dry your tent. Any of these methods can remove all the waterproof coatings from the tent.

How do I prevent mildew? 

One of the easiest ways to damage your tent is by not drying it as quickly as possible after it gets wet. Storing a wet tent for as little as 24 hours in warm weather is likely to start the process of mildew formation. Mildew can permanently damage the waterproof coatings by causing them to separate from the fabric, but mild to severe staining is more common. Mildew stains are permanent. They cannot be removed without potential harm to the fabric coatings and are not covered by warranty. Even when your tent appears to be dry after use, it is always best to ensure it is completely dry before storing. Hang it outside or pile it loosely in your house for a few days, turning it inside and out to ensure it has dried everywhere. Never machine dry your tent as the heat can melt the fabric.
