FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does Hydrostatic Head mean?
Hydrostatic Head (HH) is a method for measuring a fabric’s waterproofness. Using millimeters (mm) as the unit, it indicates the height of a water column required to penetrate the fabric. Aquatexx EV® has been rigorously tested and boasts a minimum 25,000mm HH, making it the highest-rated bivvy material on the market today, surpassing most competitors at around 15-20,000 HH.
What level of UV protection does Aquatexx EV® provide?
Aquatexx EV® material ensures UV protection up to UPF50.
Does Aquatexx EV® fabric let in light?
No, Aquatexx EV® fabric on our range of brollies, bivvies, and social caps offers total blackout for optimal rest conditions. Note that Skull Caps and Skull Cap Wraps lack the blackout feature, as it’s unnecessary.
Is Aquatexx EV® 100% waterproof?
Yes, Aquatexx EV® fabric is 100% waterproof, utilizing Teflon® fabric treatment and a specialized technical coating to repel water effectively.
I’ve noticed dimples on the inside of the bivvy after heavy rain. Is this normal?
Yes, this is normal. The inner coating minimizes condensation, causing small dimples during heavy rain. This effect is temporary and disappears when dried out.
Will my Aquatexx EV® bivvy or accessory change color over time?
While our bivvies are designed for prolonged use, exposure to sunlight may lead to some fading. We recommend placing the bivvy in shaded areas to minimize color impact.
How do I clean and maintain the performance of my Aquatexx EV® bivvy and accessories?
Optimize your Aquatexx EV® bivvy’s longevity by using our Revive Shelter Complete Care Kit regularly for cleaning and re-proofing.
How often should I re-proof my Aquatexx EV® bivvy and accessories?
Re-proof your bivvy at least twice a year or as needed, depending on usage. Consider re-proofing when you observe a noticeable decline in rain ‘beading-up’ on your bivvy.
