Frequently asked questions to CAMPWERK
Camping
Time and again we are asked the question: “And what do we do when it gets cold?”. The answer is very simple: we have been heating our homes when it gets cold since time immemorial.
For some reason, many people think that heating in a tent is useless, as the heat immediately dissipates. In fact, tents, caravans and motorhomes do not achieve the same level of insulation as houses. If it is cold outside and no heating is switched on, it quickly gets cooler inside – faster in a tent than in a motorhome.
In reality, however, it is almost irrelevant whether a motorhome takes ten minutes and a tent five minutes to cool down. What counts is that it cools down without heating.
For this reason, we have great heating systems for our tent trailers in our range, which keep the tent cozy and warm even in the snow. CAMPWERK mainly uses electric and kerosene heaters that have been developed and tested for outdoor use.
Electric heaters are always our first choice!
Compact, quick to set up, adjustable and, thanks to the flat-rate electricity rates at campsites, usually the cheapest choice.
Additional storage space for a power source is not required.
These small heaters are also useful at home, for example when the tent needs to be dried quickly.
We recommend kerosene and gas heaters if you want to be self-sufficient on the road. You can buy kerosene and gas in almost all DIY stores when you are out and about.
We recommend: Always take a heater with you!
Even in Italy there can be a chilly night and nothing lifts the mood like a little warmth.
By the way: an additional advantage of the heating is that the climate in the tent also improves to living room temperature.
Trailer
We have written a separate information page for this:
How much weight you are allowed to load on the various trailers depends on the tare weight and the maximum permissible total weight of your trailer.
However, you can easily work out for yourself how much you are allowed to load.
The following applies: max.
The following applies: max. permissible gross weight – unladen weight = payload.
Our unbraked trailers have a maximum permissible gross weight of 750 kg as standard, our braked trailers over 1,300 kg and our off-roaders over 1,500 kg.
We can reduce the permissible gross weight to any desired weight by reducing the load.
