Darche RTT Anti−Condensation Mat

G'day Jason,

The anti-condensation mat is 236L x 136W cm, so as long as the sleeping space in the Yowie model you have is the same or larger, it should fit. 

G'day Natalie,

Its about a foot too long to fit into the Bandit 1400 - whilst you can cut it to size, you'd need to make sure you've got a way to finish off the edge incase the netting threads unravel.

G'day Cally,

I've not heard of these being cleaned before, but given the actual product itself and how its constructed, the best bet would be to hang it over the washing line and give it a good squirt out with your hose or power washer - just let it drip dry.

We've only got the mats specific for the rooftop tents sorry, I guess you could still use it but it won't necessarily fit neatly.

G'day Jess,

In theory it probably could, but I would make sure you have a option to rebind the edge instead of leaving it raw, as the threads of the woven top and bottom netting may unravel.

G'day Leanne,

It is manufactured by Darche but suitable for use with any Roof Top Tent.
Just triple check your sleeping area dimensions against the dimensions of the condensation mat to get an idea of fit.

G'day Ann,

Generally, this type of matting won't help to reduce condensation in a swag. They're designed to be used in rooftop tents with aluminium bases, that get very cold due and increase condensation. Swags will generally benefit most from ventilation in cold weather, so we'd recommend opening up your ventilation windows to help reduce condensation. if you did chose to add one of these to your swag, it could be rolled up inside, this wouldn't be a problem.

G'day Joel,

Yes, the RTT Anti-Condensation Mat is useful to use underneath any mattress style in your RTT. It is designed to improve airflow, and therefore reduce condensation, which is fairly common in Rooftop tents.

G'day Simon,

The Anti-Condensation Mat is only made in the 1400 and 1600 size, so for the larger 2200 model you could run with 1 x 1600, or you could overlap 2 x 1400s

G'day James, 

You could use this mat inside a tent or swag, however, you won't get the same benefit as you do in a rooftop tent. The mat helps to improve airflow between the very cold base that is exposed to cold outside air temperatures and the foam mattress. In a tent that is pitched on the ground, the ground temperature difference isn't generally great enough to cause condesnation. Usually, in a tent the best way to handle condensation is by using the integrated airflow vents, however, you might find this matting adds a very small amount of benefit under your mattresses on the tent floor.

G'day Guy,

The anti-condensation mat is designed to go between the floor of the rooftop tent, and the mattress. The last image probably shows a little more clearly how it works, with the mattress pulled up and away in the photo.

G'day Metin,

Yes this should work with other brands that are the same size without any issues.

G'day Richard,

There are two mats sizes, and the external dimensions will update when you select the size from the drop-down menu. The 1400 is 236L x 136W cm, and the 1600 is 236L x 156W cm.
