Setup
This product must be set up and supervised by an adult. Use only on grass or soft surfaces. Do not use on concrete, asphalt, etc. without padding. If needed, operator(s) of this device shall provide protective ground cover, and any crowd management devices, barriers, gates, etc. Always make sure the ground is debris-free before setup, and never drag across rough surfaces.
1)Unroll product on a suitable, dry, soft and debris-free surface.
2)Connect blower(s) to the long inlet, and tie securely. (If your inflatable has an outlet tube, tie this shut before inflating)
3)Anchor the blower to the ground using the stakes. Do not use the blower near water or in wet conditions (position the blower so it is away from any over spray, puddles, wet players, etc). If the blower becomes wet, discontinue use until it is dry. If your blower is equipped with a GFCI near the plug and the blower shuts off, please check the GFCI to resume power. Do not allow any players into the inflatable before it is fully inflated and anchored.
4)Plug in and start the blower; your unit will inflate within a couple minutes. You must leave the blower running the entire time the inflatable is being used. You will hear air “breathing” out of seams and fabric. This is intentional to allow air to escape.
5)Once inflated, anchor the inflatable product to the ground using the stakes. Never use the inflatable without anchoring it to the ground. Most inflatable injuries are caused by wind gusts. Never use your inflatable in situations where wind may affect play.

It's EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO STORE THE INFLATABLE DRY! Ensure that all the players have left play area, Remove any loose articles or debris from play area. Empty any water from water units while still inflated. Allow the unit to continue to run until thoroughly dry. Turn off, and unplug blower. Once product is fully deflated, fold&store in cool, dry area.

In order to maximize usage, care instructions must be followed.
1)Environmental factors such as prolonged exposure to sun, water, heat or cold will destroy inflatables, so the inflatable much not be left outside when not in use.
2)Inflatables MUST be stored dry, or mold will develop and cause irreparable decay to the material. Please note this will void your warranty. Units left outside in humid environments will develop mold as well. Refrain from storing your item in airtight containers, as mold/mildew may develop.
3)Maximum weight limits must be obeyed at all times, or the unit may fail.
4)Do not use harsh chemicals to clean your inflatable. Soap and water may be used sparingly.
5)Seams and splits can be repaired utilizing a needle and strong thread(not included). The patch kit included is suitable for minor repairs.

7)Your InfaltableZone bouncer is designed with inner stitching and constant air flow, so the unit is still functional with small holes. If outside stitching separates, stitches can be repaired using common thread. Thanks to inner stitching, the inflatable will still work.
Bubble House Instruction
1. Choose a suitable location for your bubble house, avoiding outdoor setup in direct sunlight or during extreme temperatures. While safety standards are still being developed, it is generally recommended to avoid temperatures of 85 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
2. When the bubble house is not in use, it is advisable to avoid keeping it powered on and fully inflated for extended periods. To alleviate pressure on the vinyl, partially open the zippers or consider using a speed controller to regulate airflow.
3. Adhere to the manufacturer's guidelines regarding the blower used for your bubble house. For standard-sized bubbles (10ft diameter), it is generally recommended not to exceed a 1HP blower.
4. Implement a standard maximum rental period to minimize the time the bubble house remains inflated, especially during outdoor setups in hot weather. Extended inflation increases internal pressure within the unit.
5. Consider having a trained bubble house attendant present at every event. Attendants can ensure guests follow safety rules, create an enjoyable party experience, and help minimize wear and tear on the unit, ultimately protecting your investment.
Remember to consult the specific instructions and safety guidelines for your bubble house to ensure proper usage and maintenance.

- Keep a safe distance: Maintain a safe distance from docks, boats, boat lifts, and other structures. Never tie the product to a dock to prevent damage, injury, or death.
- Vertical mooring lines: Use one vertical mooring line for each anchor ring. Choose an appropriate weight anchor, ground screw, or earth anchor at the base.
- Anchor weight recommendations: Follow anchor weight recommendations based on average conditions. In areas with extreme weather, strong tides, currents, winds, or swell, consider using up to 50% additional weight or holding power.
- Install anchors and mooring lines first: Before inflating the product, ensure that anchors and mooring lines are properly installed.
Commercial Pool:
- Check pool requirements: Carefully check the commercial pool's specifications in advance. Confirm the minimum water depth, safe distance from hard objects (pool edge), and vertical clearance requirements. Note that most residential pools may not meet these requirements.
- Horizontal moorings: Use a minimum of 4 horizontal mooring lines made from heavy-duty elastic. Add additional horizontal moorings as needed for larger product groups.
- Attach to pool anchor eyes: Connect the horizontal moorings to pool anchor eyes, such as those used to secure lane buoy lines. Always adjust the mooring lines to keep the product(s) under tension.
