Indoor bookings only

Indoor bouncy castle bookings are required during winter due to safety regulations and weather unpredictability. Strong winds, rain, cold temperatures, and unsuitable ground surfaces make outdoor use unsafe during this time of year and a higher risk of being cancelled

rainy days

Bouncy Castles

 Before the Rains

  • Monitor the forecast: Keep a close eye on weather predictions leading up to your event.
  • Consider an indoor venue: If you are worried about unpredictable weather, you can avoid cancellations by booking a village or community hall for your party.
  • Confirm features: Ask if the bouncy castle includes a shower or rain cover. While these offer some protection in light showers, they are not designed for heavy downpours. 

During Rainfall

  • Keep it inflated: If it starts to drizzle or rain lightly, keep the bouncy castle inflated. This helps to drain water and allows the surface to dry quickly once the rain stops.
  • Supervise carefully: In light rain, children can usually continue to play, but supervision is crucial. The entrance and step of the castle can become slippery, so ensure mats are kept as dry as possible.
  • Wipe down surfaces: Have towels ready to wipe down any wet surfaces, especially the entrance step, as the PVC material becomes very slippery when wet. 

During heavy or persistent rain

  • Evacuate immediately: If the rain becomes heavy or persistent, all children must exit the bouncy castle immediately. The surface will become very slippery, creating a significant risk of injury.
  • Do not use: The bouncy castle should not be used again until all rain has stopped and the surface is completely dry.
  • Monitor the ground: Check that the ground anchors or pegs have not become loose due to softened, waterlogged ground. 

After the Rain

  • Fully dry the castle: Reinflate the castle and use towels to dry all surfaces. If the sun is out, let it air dry completely before children re-enter.
  • Drain water: Bubbles coming through the seams are a sign that the castle is pushing out trapped water. If any water has pooled inside, you may need to open a deflation zipper or prop up a side to help it drain.
  • Inform the provider: If the inflatable was significantly soaked, let the hire company know when they collect it. If it is rolled up wet, it can cause mold and mildew, which can lead to additional cleaning fees


inflatable nightclubs

Before it Rains

  • Monitor the forecast: Keep a close eye on weather predictions leading up to your event.
  • Discuss the weather policy: Contact the rental company if heavy or persistent rain is forecast. Discuss their specific cancellation and rescheduling policies for bad weather.
  • Have a contingency plan: Consider a backup indoor venue, if available, in case the weather makes using the inflatable unsafe.
  • Decide on a backup plan: Be prepared to make a decision in consultation with the provider on whether to proceed, reschedule, or cancel based on their terms and conditions. 

During Rainfall

  • Supervise guests: As soon as rain starts, ensure all guests immediately exit the inflatable nightclub. The wet surface is a slip hazard and using it during rain is unsafe.
  • Do not deflate (for light rain): If it's a light or passing shower, keep the inflatable turned on. Deflating it will cause water to pool inside, which makes it heavy and difficult to dry. Keeping it inflated helps the surface dry faster when the rain stops.
  • Protect the electrical equipment: Cover the electrical blower and any other music or lighting equipment with a waterproof covering. Ensure the blower continues to draw in air but is protected from rain.
  • Assess the ground: Monitor the ground around the inflatable. If it becomes soft or waterlogged, the anchor stakes can become loose, making the whole structure unstable.
  • Deflate for heavy rain or storms: If the rain is torrential, or during a lightning storm, follow the provider's specific instructions. This may involve turning off the blower and fully deflating the unit to prevent it from being filled with water

 After the Rain

  • Dry the surfaces: Before anyone is allowed back in, use towels to thoroughly dry all surfaces of the inflatable. Pay close attention to the entrance and floor, where water may have pooled.
  • Check for bubbling: It is normal to see water bubbling through the seams as the inflatable dries. This is the unit pushing out any trapped moisture and is a sign that it is drying properly.
  • Make it easier for us: please inflate the inflatable nightclub to give it time to dry for us to pick up if not it can cause mold and mildew, which can lead to additional cleaning fees

  


Wind Speed

 Before the event

  • Check the forecast: Use the Met Office or other reputable forecasting services to monitor the wind speed forecast in the days leading up to your hire.
  • Talk to the hire company: Contact your provider if strong winds are predicted. Many companies will contact you first, as they reserve the right to cancel if gusts are forecast to exceed 24 mph (Force 5 on the Beaufort Scale), a legal safety limit.
  • Secure an indoor venue: If high winds are a possibility, consider booking an indoor venue like a community hall. This is the only way to guarantee the inflatable can be used safely, regardless of outdoor weather conditions. 

 During the event

  • Monitor wind speed: While the hire company will provide guidelines, you must keep an eye on local wind conditions throughout the event. Visual cues that winds are too strong include small trees swaying, and it becoming difficult to walk or use an umbrella.
  • Immediately evacuate users: As soon as wind speeds, including gusts, approach or exceed 24 mph (38 kph), all users must be evacuated from the inflatable immediately and safely.
  • Switch off and deflate: Once everyone is away, switch off the blower to deflate the  inflatable. This reduces its ability to catch the wind and become airborne.
  • Re-secure the castle: Ensure all anchor points remain secure during deflation. Once fully deflated, reinforce the anchoring with any spare sandbags or weights, particularly if you cannot move it indoors. 

 What not to do

  • Do not rely on a weather app: Smartphone apps are unreliable for local wind speeds. They only provide a general average and do not account for gusts or wind funnelling, which can be significantly different at your specific location.
  • Do not use the inflatable in strong wind: Attempting to operate inflatable  above the safe wind limit is extremely dangerous. It voids the hire company's insurance and makes you liable for any injury or damage that occurs.
  • Do not remove or alter anchors: Never remove or reposition the ground stakes, ropes, or ballast bags that the hire company installed. These are carefully placed to secure the inflatable against wind.

Hot Weather

To ensure safety when hiring an inflatable in hot weather, customers must take specific precautions to prevent burns from hot surfaces and to keep users, especially children, from overheating. 


Before the event

  • Request a shaded location: If you have shaded areas in your garden, let the installers know on delivery. Setting up the inflatable under trees or near a building can significantly reduce the risk of its surface becoming dangerously hot.
  • Have a plan for hydration and rest: Arrange for a shaded resting area nearby where users can take breaks and have plenty of access to water.
  • Check for built-in shade: If you know you are hiring for a hot day, you can ask for an inflatable with a built-in roof or cover. These designs provide protection from direct sunlight and help prevent sunburn and heat exhaustion. 

During hot weather

  • Test the surface temperature: Before allowing anyone to use the inflatable, test the temperature of the bouncing surface, slide, and safety mats with your hand. If it is too hot to touch, it is too hot to use. The surface can heat up rapidly in direct sunlight and has been recorded at temperatures up to 47Β°C.
  • Limit use during peak sun: If possible, schedule your bouncing sessions for the cooler parts of the day, such as the morning or late afternoon. Avoid using the inflatable during the peak heat hours, typically between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m..
  • Enforce regular breaks: Implement mandatory breaks every 10–15 minutes, moving everyone to a designated shaded area to rest and cool down.
  • Wear protective clothing: Require all users to wear socks to protect the soles of their feet from the hot surface. Lightweight, long-sleeved clothing can also protect skin from both heat and UV rays.
  • Do not use water to cool it down: It is a common myth that spraying water on the inflatable will cool it. In reality, the water can magnify the sun's rays, which makes the surface even hotter. A wet surface is also very slippery and unsafe.
  • Ensure proper hydration: Provide a constant supply of drinking water and encourage everyone, especially children, to drink frequently. Children often don't notice they are thirsty when they are having fun, making it your responsibility to remind them.
  • Watch for signs of heatstroke: Look for signs of overheating, which can include flushed skin, excessive sweating, dizziness, and unusual fatigue. If you see these signs, move the individual to a cool area immediately and provide water.
