Lavvu with skirt Green

Product description

The hugely popular Polish rain poncho that was used as a tent cover (Lavvu) is now impossible to get hold of and we started looking for good newly manufactured alternatives. A small flexible and simple tent suitable for a tent stove.

It was this tent we found; a well-made construction with classic lavvu shape. Similar to a tent cabin, you get a lot of space inside for both people and luggage. The tent has good ventilation, lacks a floor, increased ceiling height and is ready for a stove through a specially designed hatch in the roof for smoke pipes and its own ventilation "hose".

This variant has a "skirt" around the bottom of the tent that effectively reduces drafts and protects from the elements. Usually called snowcap. It can either be folded in or out, if it is folded outwards you can put snow or branches over it for extra insulation. In order for oxygen to still be able to enter people and the stove, there is an adjustable ventilation opening on the wall where oxygen can be introduced.

The tent has double entrances that can be fastened in the open position, closed with zippers. At the top there are ventilation openings with mosquito nets and these can be set up with built-in opening sticks. The opening for the pipe passage can be completely closed with the tent fabric and built-in velcro, so if you are not using the stove, you can still have the tent closed. If you use the pipe hole, the tent fabric is rolled up above where it is also fastened.

Durable aluminum tent pole. The tent cloth is reinforced at the top and a hook for hanging a lamp is sewn on. At the top, the tent has a loop that is effectively used to pull steel wire to the stove pipe to get it at the right angle. The tent also has brackets for mounting extra storm lines. The tent pegs are aluminum and cross-shaped for good rigidity.

Note that the stove jack fabric piece is included and does not need to be purchased separately as on many other stove tents. This refers to the silver piece of fabric material, not the silicone flashing kit.
You make holes in the stove jack according to the size of your smoke pipe and then it is supplemented with a so-called flashing kit. Accommodates pipes up to approx. 3.5" a little depending on how hard you fire the stove. The stove in some pictures is Surtr. Stove not included.
Ensure that the pipe and stove are always a safe distance from combustible material and that adequate protection is installed against the tent canvas. All fires take place at your own risk and responsibility. Ensure proper ventilation.
