Troubleshooting

Bivvy leaks during heavy rain.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed and that the groundsheet is properly secured. Check for any tears or damage to the fabric and repair as necessary. Re-treat the fabric with a waterproof sealant.

Poles are difficult to assemble.

Ensure the poles are properly aligned and that the connectors are clean. Lubricate the joints with a silicone-based lubricant if needed.

Condensation builds up inside the bivvy.

Ensure adequate ventilation by opening vents or using the door. Avoid trapping moisture inside by storing wet items separately.
