It's a good idea to purchase a selection of tent pegs for different types of ground. The lightweight pegs you receive with a glawningLITE are good for soft ground but anything harder and you'll benefit from these.
There are lots more 'how to' videos on our YouTube channel here and more in store coming soon if you have more time or are as obsessed with glawnings as we are :)
FIRE SAFETY: Please read these important fire safety intructions at the bottom of this page that are included with your stove.
We advise everyone to keep their flue kits clean and clear of soot build up by burning only clean dry wood and cleaning the flue regularly (we use a cheap toilet brush!) and to carry the appropriate safety accessories such as fire extinguisher, carbon monoxide detector, fire gloves, fire blanket etc. Glawning Ltd cannot be held liable for the misuse of any equipment.
Try not to burn your fire too hot as this will decrease the longevity of your flashing kit. You can buy handy stove thermometers to keep you right. If you are partial to a hot tent though a double wall section is available here for your flue to protect the silicone more.
