If you look on the left of the site under advertisers and click on "Airflow". This is the company that supplies them.

If you are a paid member then you should get discount.

They're not heated or air conditioned.
The principle works on moving air similar to a frost free freezer.
By constantly circulating air inside the tent you stop moisture in the air condensating on the cold metal.
This weekends weather has been a prime example of when you get lots of condensation. The metal on the car has become really cold and a sudden warm front hitting that cold metal causes the condensation.
They do work well but you ideally need mains in your garage to run it off. Both Bert and I run ours off batteries. A normal sized car battery only lasts about a week.

I took Bunny to Berts for a service, the day before the snow. Got it back finally the day before yesterday. Bert has been keeping her company, and she has been in the workshop all that time, apart from a light dusting of snow.
She's back under the cover now on the driveway  :D
