THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A

20x20 | S-SERIES TENT!

If you have questions about installation, maintenance, or take down, please call us at (800)426-9496.  Our 
goal is that you are completely satisfied with our products.  Please read this installation manual carefully and 
follow all instructions contained herein.  Please note that the installer is responsible for the site selection, 
installation and use.  Do not erect during inclement weather and follow all safety procedures during the 
installation and take down process.

Please contact all utility companies for underground services.  In many states, the utilities work together and 
have formed a Utility Locating Service.  It is your responsibility to locate all the underground services, includ-
ing speaking to the owner about irrigation, pool and other special services that they may have installed.  Also, 
please note that special precautions should be taken such that any overhead powerlines are duly noted and 
avoided during the tent erection process.

To provide the quickest possible service, please fill in the information below so that we may effectively help 
you should a problem arise.

TentCraft Inc in no way represents the estimated holding power to be true in all cases.  It is an 
estimate, and as such, does not imply that the figures are sufficient to hold any tent securely in 
windy or adverse weather conditions.  The tent installer accepts sole responsibility for the safe 
installation, teardown, and maintenance of any tent.  TentCraft does not represent in any way that 
the materials provided with the purchase of the tent are sufficient enough to hold it up in windy or 
adverse weather conditions.  There is no way for TentCraft to know the site conditions or the 
weather conditions at the event to be able to recommend the adequate amount of holding power 
needed to hold the tent safely in position.  Furthermore, we are not responsible for the methods 
which the installer uses to erect the tent or anchor it in position.  Installers MUST be empowered 
to deem the tent unsafe for occupancy if/when the weather becomes unstable.  For further 
recommendations on determining necessary staking values, please consult the IFAI Procedural 
Handbook for the Safe Installation and Maintenance of Tentage and the IFAI’s Pullout Capacity of 
Tent Stakes.  These resources are available from the IFAI Tent Rental Division.
