Warning notes
  • SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PULSAR DOMES: Changes in humidity or temperature can cause dew or condensation inside your dome. This is completely normal and does not indicate that your dome is leaking. Do not set up the dome in bad weather (strong winds, rain, or snow). Do not use open flames or other ignition sources near the dome. You are responsible for securing the dome properly and ensuring that neither people nor materials are harmed. Your dome is intended only for temporary shelter and should not be used permanently. Please make sure that neither water nor snow accumulates on the dome, as there is a risk of the dome collapsing. Please remove standing water and snow. Please note that the warranty for Pulsar Domes only applies to the proper use of the product and when the written instructions in your manual are followed. The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear. Furthermore, it does not cover damage, wear, or defects caused by misuse or negligence. We recommend checking whether your dome is covered by your home insurance. The construction of this dome has not been tested for specific snow and wind loads. If it snows, it is your responsibility to remove the snow from the roof to protect the structure from damage. Please note that the warranty is voided if the dome is used differently or exposed to strong wind loads. We also recommend purchasing tie-down straps with carabiners and ground pegs to increase stability when not in use and in windy conditions.
