Proper ventilation plays a crucial role in comfortable sleeping in roof tents. Especially at low outside temperatures, an undesirable phenomenon can occur: condensation. This problem arises when body heat radiates through the mattress to the cooler tent floor, where the evaporating humidity causes condensation. This unpleasant phenomenon can significantly impair sleeping comfort and, in the long term, even lead to moisture damage. Gordigear therefore relies on sophisticated solutions that ensure dry and comfortable conditions in various climate zones.
With a mattress thickness of almost 9 cm, we offer the thickest mattresses in the range of high-quality roof tents for outdoor enthusiasts . This above-average thickness not only ensures outstanding sleeping comfort but also has excellent thermal properties. In Central European climates, this thick mattress is sufficient in most cases to minimize condensation problems. The body stays warm, the mattress dry, and the tent experience pleasant – even on multi-day tours in changing weather conditions.
For trips to colder regions like Iceland, Norway, or other northern destinations, we also recommend special 3D mattress pads for optimal sleeping comfort . These pads don't serve as an additional layer of insulation, but rather fulfill a completely different function: They provide optimal ventilation between the mattress and the tent floor. This airflow allows moisture to escape continuously instead of condensing. The greater the temperature difference between body heat and the outside temperature, the more important this special ventilation solution becomes for dry nights in the roof tent.
Our many years of experience in a wide variety of climates have significantly influenced our product development. For this reason, we also offer matching awnings and shower tents with sophisticated ventilation systems . These perfectly complement the roof tent and create additional living space for longer stays.
The mattress pad is simply placed between the tent floor and the mattress. Its textured surface creates the necessary space for continuous air circulation. Correct positioning is particularly important to ensure adequate ventilation across the entire mattress surface. In particularly cold conditions, such as those found in Nordic countries, this simple solution ensures significantly more comfortable sleep. Nighttime cooling due to condensation is effectively prevented.
