Many of you are interested in our car bubble, a high-quality inflatable protection available in an indoor or outdoor version. So we've compiled the most common questions and our answers to each one to help you with your purchase. Do not hesitate to contact me for more information (Lolita: [email protected]).
A. Both are high quality and provide unparalleled protection. They include a fan to quickly inflate the car bubble but also a filter that ensures a good level of purity of the air that enters (no dust and reduced humidity to prevent corrosion and other electrical damage). You can therefore store your car for long periods of time. Click on the images below to discover our 2 types of car screens.
Q. What is the consumption of the fan?
12V fan (no more than a computer - about 5 euros per month)
Q. Is the fan noisy?
A. I do not have the exact measurement in Db of the fan but having been next to it, it is not very noisy. We never heard back on this.
Q. If I park my wet car in the bubble in winter or during a season of heavy rain (or humidity), what will happen?
A. Our car windshield incorporates an evaporation system. The fan allows all moisture to evaporate within a few hours. In the enclosure of the indoor bubble for example, a humidity level of 30% - 50% is achieved. This will prevent rust from forming on the car body and eliminate mold. Short circuits and electrical and electronic damage are thus avoided.
Q. Should I leave the windows open or closed inside the car protection bubble?
A. Leave the windows slightly open (0.5 cm). If you have a convertible, the roof should be up so it doesn't trap moisture. This will allow air to circulate throughout the interior keeping it dry and odor free.
Q. How much space does the protection take up?
A. Once inflated, the car cover protrudes approximately 25 - 30 centimeters on either side of the vehicle.
Q. What happens if my self-inflating tarp has a hole?
A. The top is 0.2mm PVC. You can repair punctures using a transparent 100% PVC adhesive patch. A repair kit can be purchased.
Q. What happens if the power goes out?
A. The cover deflates and converts to a regular car cover. When the power returns, it will re-inflate within minutes. Make sure that the fan does not lie flat otherwise this will prevent the cover from inflating.
Q. If the fan uses moist air from outside, how does the vehicle stay dry?
A. The protection does not eliminate moisture, but it eliminates condensation. The fan renews the air in volume 3 to 4 times per hour. This constant air change and airflow does not allow hot and cold air masses to meet. This eliminates condensation and keeps the vehicle completely dry regardless of temperature or relative humidity.
Q. Do you need to use a cover with the bubble wrap?
A. You do not need to use any other type of auto protection. This could prevent air from circulating inside and could trap moisture.
Q. Can the protection be used for short term storage?
A. Protection can be used for short, medium or long term. Fitting is quick and easy and therefore suitable for regular use.
Q. Do you have to drain the gas tank or any other fluids before storing the vehicle?
A. No, the base mat is waterproof and resistant to gasoline, diesel, oil and antifreeze. You don't have to worry about odors because the air is constantly renewed.
Q. Is it necessary to use chemicals to keep the vehicle dry inside the car bubble?
A. No, devices and chemicals are not required.
Q. Will the guard protect my vehicle from rodents?
A. We have had no reports of rodent damage.
Q. What is the lifespan of this type of inflatable auto protection?
A. The prototypes were built in 2000 and are still in use today. Fans have a rated life of 3 to 5 years depending on operating conditions. Spare parts are available.
