Things To Consider When Buying A Pop Up Toilet Tent
Uses
Pop up tents are super useful in lots of situations:-
- Perfect for use at camp sites or festivals.
- They even come with a netted toilet roll holder.
- A zip in the top to allow a shower tube to be poked through, perfect for that solar shower
- Storage when camping or at festival.
- If your bathroom is being redone why not put this up in the garden for the family to shower?
Privacy
You won’t want anyone seeing you in all your glory, so privacy is vital.
Make sure the tent fabric is opaque so people can’t see in and choose a toilet tent that provides lots of privacy.
A zipper-lock can also make you feel more secure.
Portability
Choose one which is lightweight and easy to carry from the car when camping or taking to festivals.
Size
Think about what you will be using your pop up tent for! If you are planning on showering in there you will want space to move around. If you are tall you will want to be able to stand up too.
Always check dimensions before purchasing.
Material
Choose a tent material which is waterproof, UV resistant and durable.
Also choose tent poles which are strong and capable of withstanding the elements. Steel is an excellent option as well as aluminium or fibreglass.
Ventilation
Ventilation is essential when it comes to airing a toilet tent. Mesh windows will offer good air ventilation and mesh or clear rooftops will let in daylight so you can see what you are doing.
FAQ’s Pop Up Toilet Tents
Some may include storage pockets, tower hanger, clothesline, shower opening, removable floor base, extra hooks, shelves, rainfly, and much more.
To keep your toilet smelling fresh, to clean it out more easily, it is kinder to the environment than strong chemicals and most campsites won’t allow strong chemicals to be flushed through their systems.
As long as your tent is well ventilated and air can circulate properly. Also use toilet fluid to help neutralise the smell.
You will need to peg your toilet tent as you would a standard tent as strong winds could otherwise blow it away.
