Best Commercial Tents For Cold Weather |
Posted: March 14, 2019 |
Commercial tents offer significant advantages as venues for holding events. Whether you are planning to hold a corporate event, wedding, or a large get-together with friends, commercial tents provide you with the convenient option of hosting a large number of people away from your home or place of work. These tents provide you with a whole lot more space in a structured way than a typical building would. Commercial tents for sale come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and designs. Before purchasing a commercial tent there are few things to keep in mind. You want to be sure what ambience you want your tent to bring out. Some tent designs bring out a more corporate ambiance and tend to be more open. Some tent designs bring out a more intimate kind of ambiance. Secondly, establish what type of surface the tent will be deployed in. As we will see shortly, some tents are designed for hard or concrete surfaces while others need soft landscape-type grounds. Finally, take the climate into consideration. Some tents are more open and designed to let as much air in. These are optimal in hot weather. They will definitely not be the right option for cold weather. So we'll look at some of the tent options available and how they apply to cold weather. Pole Tents This is a type of tent where the top cover material is supported by a series of poles interconnected horizontally. The tent is held up by a set of vertically erected poles. Pole tents are secured by driving stakes into the ground and securing the vertically erected poles. This need for stakes means that pole tents cannot be safely secured on hard services such as paved or concrete surfaces. So what we are saying is that pole tents are typically set up on lawns. Consider this, during cold weather the lawn is typically not a pleasant place to be because the grass will probably be wet and cold. For this reason, we would not recommend pole tents for cold weather. Frame Tents In this type of tent, the covering material rests on a framework of interconnected frames. This framework acts as a skeleton that enables the structure to stand freely without the need for staking. Frame tents also don't need a central pole to support the core of the structure. This means that the occupants of the tent have an unobstructed view of the focal event be it a keynote speaker or a wedding. Frame tents are more stable and can withstand strong gusts of wind. The strength of the frame also means that they can be set up for long term usage without having to constantly check on the stability of the structure. Another very significant advantage is that being able to set them up on paved areas means that we can keep our guests feet dry. This makes them a very good option for cold weather scenarios. It is also very important that the framework of the commercial tent is designed to ensure snow slides off and does not accumulate at the top. This is important to prevent the tent from collapsing under the weight of snow. Ensure that you inform your commercial tent supplier of the conditions in which you intend to operate to the tent so that they can advise you appropriately. So far we have been focusing on the structure of the tent. You can also incorporate additional features that would make our guests warm in cold weather events. Sidewall covering Select a tent with sidewalls to keep your guests protected from cold gusts of wind and rain. The sidewall will isolate the internal atmosphere from the external one. Sidewalls are very convenient and are offered in a variety of options. You can select a solid sidewall that does not reveal what is going on in the event. There are also transparent sidewalls with window like features allowing your guests to have a look outside. Suggestions on how to keep the tent warm during cold weather • You can rent a heater to provide the much-needed heat in your tent. It is advisable to get the professional recommendation of commercial tent supplier on the heating options available. • Ensure that the side walls of the tent are well secured both at the top and at the bottom to keep cold gusts of wind outside. • Ensure that the tent has tent doors securing the exits and entrances and keeping the cold air out. We hope this post goes a long way in addressing commercial tent selection for cold weather. So feel free to leave us a comment on your thoughts or any questions you may have.
