Helpful instructions and guides

Fill with water from hose, empty through hole near the bottom (take cap off and let water drain)

If subzero temperatures are expected, add antifreeze to the water in your Giffy Tent Ballasting System. We advise using non-toxic RV antifreeze, as auto antifreeze is sweet and attracts animals. Follow directions on the container for correct water-to-antifreeze ratio. It is important to properly dispose of the used non-toxic RV antifreeze according to local regulations.
