WeatherTec + System

To help campers stay dry during stormier trips the Coleman Exponent tent range features the WeatherTec + system. A system that has evolved and improved over time, it utilises the latest technology and includes cleverly designed tent features to ensure you are protected and dry on the campsite.

Fire Retardant

For added safety Coleman and Coleman Exponent tent fabrics are fire retardant. The fire retardant process ensures that the tent fabric will not flare dangerously out of control and will self-extinguish, giving time to escape.

Zipper Cuff and Inverted Zippers: A cuff of material that runs the entire length of the zip, offering additional protection from wind and rain. Inverted zips channel water away from the zipper, preventing pooling of water and seepage.

Redesigned poles to anchor tents: Tent poles are engineered to be stronger and more wind responsive. Strategically placed guylines support the tent pole, helping to improve its performance in stormier conditions.

Welded corners and floors: Welding technology strengthens tent floors and avoids the incidence of needle holes created in the tent manufacturing process. Welded floor seams are stronger than traditional sewn floor seams, providing resistance and longevity.

Weatherproof fabric and taped seams: Water-repellent PU coated fabric with anti-wicking thread and water-repellent zippers is designed to keep you dry. The stitched seams are taped to offer superior protection.

Wrapflex Poles Fibreglass tent poles finished with a polyester film for added strength and durability.

UV Pro: Offers fabric protection from UV rays and incresed fabric longevity.

In climates where there is a high level of humidity, condensation can occur. The optimum method of reducing condensation is improved ventilation. Coleman designers have spent time developing a specific ventilation systemf or family and touring tent. The airflo system allow cool air to enter through adjustable rain flaps or a zip-open groundsheet and warm air to leave through top or side vents creating optimum airflow.

The Airflo system is fully adjustable and features larger ventilation panels to cope with the volume of air in family and touring tents.

Poor or inefficient ventilation in backpacking tents can quickly become a source of disomfort due to the proximity of the flysheet and the effects of condensation. The most efficient type of ventilation allows cold air to enter the tent at the bottom and to leave through the top creating optimum airflow.

Variflo reduces condensation by controlling the airflow and temperature from inside the tent. Optimally placed vents are fully adjustable so campers have greater control over internal conditions when they need it. Simple but effective ventilation.
