Coody AirTent Series FAQ

The AirTent 80, 140, Familia and Aurora are all constructed from TC fabric treated to be waterproof up to 1000mm of hydrostatic pressure, the cotton content in the fabric will cure over time, becoming more watertight.


However, it's important to reapply a waterproofing treatment once a year. All models come with a 420D silver-coated rainfly that covers the entire tent, including the walls, and is rated to withstand 3000mm of static pressure, making it suitable for heavy rain conditions.

All AirTent Series models are suitable for winds up to 25 mph. However, for optimal performance in windy conditions, ensure the following:


• Proper Inflation: Maintain the recommended PSI (maximum 7.5 PSI).
• Secure Ground Stakes: Use all provided ground stakes in solid ground.
• Properly Set Guy Lines: Ensure all guy lines are tightly secured.


Be cautious of powerful gusts, as the force exerted on the tent is a product of wind speed and surface area. Avoid using the tent in heavy gale conditions or storms. Wind gusts can exceed the average wind speed, so always check the forecast for any heavy winds.

The time it takes to inflate your tent depends on the type of pump you use.

Using a Manual Pump:

• AirTent 80: 120 pumps
• AirTent 140: 250 pumps

Using the Electric AirPump 6000mAh:

• AirTent 80: 5-8 minutes to reach 5 PSI (7.5 PSI is recommended)
• AirTent 140: 6-10 minutes to reach 5 PSI (7.5 PSI is recommended)

The AirTent 80 / Coody 8.0, AirTent 140 / Coody 13.6, and Coody 17.2 Familia models all feature a pressure release valve located in the pole at the back of the tent, opposite the inflation valve. Despite this, it is advised to monitor the pressure during inflation and to never exceed 7.5 PSI.

No! This is not like a bounce house. Once the tent is inflated, simply seal off the input valve, and the tent will stay inflated and erect. You do not need to keep pumping air into the structure.

No, the tent should not leak air. If you notice a loss of air, it could be due to one of the following reasons:

1. Air Input Nozzle Not Firmly Closed: The air input nozzle has two parts - the inner nozzle releases air, and the outer nozzle is a one-way valve allowing air in. Ensure both are firmly screwed shut to prevent any air leakage.
2. Pressure Release Valve: The tent has a pressure release valve on the air pole opposite the input nozzle. This valve vents excess air if the pressure exceeds a safe limit, which can happen if the tent gets too hot (e.g., on a sunny day or if you're using a heater inside). If this happens, just add a little air to restore the pressure to 7.5 PSI.
3. Leak or Hole: If you suspect a leak or hole, refer to our tent patching guide for help finding and fixing the issue.

Yes, we recommend always using a ground sheet. It helps keep the tent clean when folding it for transport and storage.

Oliezi Outdoors offers custom ground sheets available for purchase on our website.

If you prefer to use your own ground sheet or tarp, here are the dimensions for each tent:

• AirTent 80: 8'2" x 10'6"
• AirTent 140: 11'10" x 12'6"

If you use an oversized ground sheet, be sure to fold it so it doesn't protrude. Using a tarp or ground sheet larger than the tent can cause water to pool under the tent. Always use a ground sheet that matches your tent's floor size.

All of our tents are made from durable fabric. However, proper maintenance helps maintain its durability. That said, after camping, make sure to spray some mild soapy water on your tent and wipe it with a clean, soft sponge. Let it air dry, disassemble, and then place it back in its storage container.
