Product description
Includes Savotta Hawu 4 Door piece (HD-4), Savotta Hawu 4 Wall piece and Savotta Hawu 4 Extension piece (HE-4). Other accessories are extra and don't include in the basic price.
The Hawu tent is made up of two (or three) separate pieces)
1. Savotta Hawu 4 Door piece (HD-4): which as the name implies features the door. This half also has the port for a stove pipe. Comes with a military utility strap for keeping the canvas rolled up in transport.
2. Savotta Hawu 4 Wall piece: this is a solid piece of fabric without any openings. Comes with a carabiner and military utility strap.
3. Savotta Hawu 4 Extension piece (HE-4): an additional accessory which increases the space of the tent to accommodate more people. The Hawu 4 + mid section offers room for six people. The mid section is 1,5m in width and comes with a military utility strap for packing.)
Designed to accommodate 4-6 persons, represents a completely new way of designing portable group shelters. Aside from the usual center pole the Hawu can also be pitched around a tree trunk or hung from a branch, no corner poles are ever needed. One half of a Hawu tent can be used on it´s own as a tarp. The option to use a wood burning stove for warmth makes the Hawu 4 the most versatile small tent around. The Hawu is designed to survive and help you survive extreme conditions in both military and civilian outdoors use.
Extra care has been put into making the Hawu tent as easy to pitch and as multi-functional as possible. The tent is made up of two halves of which each can be used on as a stand-alone “loue” style tarp. The two halves are attached to each other using zippers, the zippers are covered by a rolled storm flap which is secured by webbing tabs. When combined the two halves form a tent which can be pitched in three different ways:
1. As usual with a central pole
2. Around a tree, the tree functions as a central pole. The rear half comes with a military utility strap and strong carabiner for attachment around a tree trunk.
3. Hang from a branch or any other point (telephone wires will work, but are not recommended).
Corner poles are not needed, the corner lines are pulled tight using specialty buckles, this design makes the tent “float” in perfect shape. Pitching is extremely easy and quick, even solo! Due to it´s special design the Hawu tent can be purchased in parts. For the basic tent setup you need the Door half and Rear half. Depending on how you want to pitch it you will also need a central pole and/or pegs. These can of course be made from pieces of wood out in the field but the easiest way is purchasing ready made, purpose built pegs and poles.
The complete Hawu tent provides shelter from bad weather and harsh conditions. However, even here in Finland, it sometimes happens that the sun shines and birds sing. During such anomalous weather you can adjust and adapt the Hawu to suit the situation, you can fold it open just a bit for a nice view or open it up completely and just keep the rear half as a wind shield. And when the weather gets real bad you can close all the hatches and add a wood burning stove and drying lines for wet clothes. For these the Hawu has a stove pipe port and tie down points ready and waiting. When you need more space you can add the Mid section which increases interior space to accommodate even more people
If you really want to get lost with the Hawu it´s easy: just pitch it around a lush tree and you won´t be spotted even from helicopters. In case a bear comes knocking or you throw a jacket on the stove and it catches fire don’t worry: the side zippers function as extremely fast emergency exits. The tent halves attach so that you can just push your way out through the joint in a hurry. You don´t have to fear the tent itself catching fire though, the Hawu is made from a fire retardant fabric. Don´t go fooling around though, you can burn a hole through the fabric if you really try and that is not covered by our warranty. The fire retardant fabric extinguishes itself as soon as it´s removed from direct contact with an open flame.

Savotta Hawu Central Pole:
In most situations, a suitable tree serves as the Hawu tent’s centre pole. Thanks to their structure, Hawu tents do not require complex pole sets. However, for example in treeless terrain, a conventional metal centre pole can be convenient.
Note. Savotta manufactures this product in Finland and Estonia. Country of manufacture is labeled to the product.
The Hawu centre pole can be adjusted by degrees from 70 cm to 184 cm. The adjustment is done with metal adjustment pins, which come attached to the pole with string, so they will not fall into the first shrub and get lost.
The pole has three segments and is telescopic. Retracted for transport, the compact pole is 70 cm long. The pole weighs 1,4 kg.
The Hawu centre pole is compatible with Hawu 4 and Hawu 8 tents. Naturally, it can also be used to pitch other Savotta centre-pole tents.

Savotta Wood Stove 400 (WS-400):
This stove represents the next generation of tent stoves and our vision for how stoves should be. The HAWU wood stove is efficient, light, durable, long-lasting, stylish and modern.
The Hawu Story:
The HAWU wood stove is a part of the growing Hawu product family designed by the Hawu team. The stove’s primary designer Tommi Vahtera joined the Hawu product development team in days of yore, and since then he has focused on designing new kinds of heaters. The HAWU wood stove has been designed strictly according to the Hawu philosophy: Hawu products are developed and tested carefully and thoroughly by dedicated outdoorsmen. Today, every self-respecting hiker can be a part of the Hawu story.
The spark for creating the Hawu WS-400 wood stove was the observation that none of the tent stoves available was very good at its intended purpose. Tommi Vahtera and his team accepted the challenge of creating a wood-burning stove that was lighter, more durable and efficient, cleaner and superior to the existing solutions in terms of usability. For a long time, the design work mostly focused on optimising the combustion process. The final appearance and materials were decided when operating requirements were considered.
Shape
The stove’s oval shape is easy to use, economical and energy-efficient. The stove has a large heat-emitting surface compared to its weight, which is less than one-third of the weight of a conventional Savotta tent stove. The oval shape also makes the structure stable. Thanks to its structure, the stove can withstand thermal expansion without twisting or denting, even when red-hot. The top and bottom of the stove are truncated to ensure sufficient clearance under the stove and to make it possible to heat food or make coffee on top of the stove. Unusually, the chimney pipe outlet is located in the middle of the stove, leaving room for two efficient heating plates on either side of the chimney.
Technology:
Thanks to its folding legs, the stove packs into a small space and is compact to transport. The legs fold out for use, raising the hot stove safely off the ground. The laser-cut leg profile is strong yet light. The bottom cut patterns facilitate standing the stove on logs in case it needs to be used on snow in the winter.
The stove has a detachable fire grate that can be removed and shaken clean. An easy way to empty the stove is to turn it upside down and fold the legs together, forming a handle. Hold onto the handle and shake the stove for easy ash removal. Replace the fire grate before use.
Tech Specs:
Material: Fireproof stainless steel
Weight: 5.4 kg (including fire grate 0.7 kg)
Total length: 39 cm (package length 42 cm due to door handle)
Total height with legs folded out: 37 cm
Total height with legs folded in: 31 cm (package height)
Combustion chamber length: 36.5 cm, recommended firewood length max. 35 cm
Combustion chamber shape: Vertical oval cylinder with truncated ends
Combustion chamber width max.: 22 cm
Combustion chamber height: 25 cm
Combustion chamber opening: width 12 cm, height 17 cm
Chimney collar height: 4 cm
Chimney collar Ø: 8 cm
Total height with legs folded out: 37 cm
Total height with legs folded in: 32 cm
Stove bottom ground clearance: 8 cm
Leg gap in use: 33 cm
The product has a 1-year guarantee against material and manufacturing defects.

Savotta Hawu Roll Chimney 2000 (RC-2000):
The HAWU Roll Chimney is a part of the growing Hawu product family designed by the Hawu team. The chimney’s primary designer Tommi Vahtera joined the Hawu product development team in days of yore, and since then he has focused on designing new kinds of heaters. The HAWU Roll Chimney has been designed strictly according to the Hawu philosophy: Hawu products are developed and tested carefully and thoroughly by dedicated outdoorsmen. Today, every self-respecting hiker can be a part of the Hawu story.
The idea behind the Hawu RC-2000 Roll Chimney was to develop a pipe solution for new heaters that was as light and portable as possible. Together with Pasi Ylirisku, Tommi Vahtera accepted the challenge of creating a chimney that was lighter, smaller and superior to the existing solutions in terms of usability. The chimney material was chosen after a thorough study of the available options, leading to the discovery of a brand new chimney material and design.
We can now honestly say that the stove chimney has been reinvented. Instead of the conventional set-up of several pipe sections, the HAWU Roll Chimney is one-piece. The HAWU Roll Chimney is made of fireproof steel, giving it a long service life. The chimney material is embossed by cold-rolling, which doubles the chimney’s surface area and stiffens it. The greater surface area increases the heat-giving surface, making the chimney more effective for heating. The embossed patterns inside the chimney produce microvortices in the combustion gases, increasing the draught and reducing soot adhesion. The coupling rings (bands) are made of spring steel, sliding smoothly along the chimney surface as needed when the chimney is erected or packed up.
Rolled up for transport, the chimney is a 30-cm roll weighing just 1 kg, easy to carry inside the stove or in a backpack pocket. Spread out, the chimney is 2 m long and compatible with HAWU tents as well as the Savotta sauna tent, among others. Roll chimneys can also be linked together to form longer chimneys. A chimney consisting of a few roll chimneys is suited to even a large tent.
Note. Savotta manufactures this product in Finland and Estonia. Country of manufacture is labeled to the product.
Material: Roll-formed fireproof steel (material thickness 0.13 mm)
Weight: 1 kg (with bands)
Roll length: 30 cm
Ø: 70-90 mm
Spread-out length: 2 m
The roll is bound with spring steel bands: 6 pcs, weight á 50 g
Warning! Sharp edges! Note! Always wear gloves when handling the roll chimney! Because the roll chimney is designed to be extremely light, the material is thin. Thin steel has very sharp edges.
