Hi Glen, exact temperature measurements are not available, but Carinthia states:
''Whether on windy days, cool nights, or even in the winter - the HUQ 180 provides excellent protection against the cold in the back and side area. The special cut adapts the underquilt on the convex shape of the hammock sleeper. In addition, its is adjustable by means of rubber drawstrings and fits perfectly to the body shape. It can be combined with all standard single outdoor hammocks due the versatile adjustment possibilities.''
As the underquilt is used off the ground and has a Gloft insulation, it will be suitable in damp environment. As far as extreme temperatures are concerned, it is my advice to use the underquilt only in combination with a suitable sleeping bag.

I hope this helps. Best regards!
