The Stove Mate - Fireproof Canvas stove flap.
Created by Bell tent Boutique in 2014 the Stove Mate system has been designed to incorporate a fireproof section into your tent for fitting stoves.
Whilst may tents will just have a hole in the canvas for a chimney the Stove Mate creates a safety zone around your flue pipe when a stove is fitted in your tent..
Crafted from two layers of fireproof material the Stove Mate's outer flap is held down with a tight velcro seal. The addition of the Stove Mate to your tent creates an exit hole for your stoves flue and a cover for when the stove is not fitted. A fireproof section allows your flue to safely exit the tent and neatly covers your flue exit when the stove is not fitted. The stove mate is designed to be used with a flashing kit for your stove.
Inner layer
The inner section of the Stove Mate creates a 40cm x 40cm section of fireproof Kevlar treated material in your tent for your stove flue to exit through. Created with a hole initially designed to accommodate a flashing kit for a 60mm flue. This is the layer your tent stove flashing kit is attached to. Other sizes of stove flues and flashing kits can be accommodated by adding the correct flashing kit and trimming back the Stove Mate's canvas to the inside of the metal ring.
Outer Layer
Created from our 360 gsm fireproof canvas, the outer flap of the Stove Mate matches your tents canvas material and is folded up and held in place with loops and toggles when the stove's flue is installed. When not using a stove it can be closed tightly shut to create a weatherproof seal using the velco on the three edges.
Both our regular stove hole tents and our Pro range incorporate the Stove Mate system to safely incorporate a stove in your tent.
