Inflatable Product Maintenance Guide

Children playing inside the World's Largest Bounce House in New Orleans, demonstrating a large commercial inflatable that requires proper cleaning, maintenance, and storage for long-term use.

Proper maintenance helps extend the lifespan of your inflatable products, keeps them looking their best, and ensures safe operation for years to come. Follow these simple care tips after each use and during long-term storage.

Cleaning the PVC surface of an inflatable product with a soft towel before storage to remove dirt and ensure the inflatable is completely dry for long-term maintenance.

1. Clean Before Storage

Before deflating the inflatable, wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. Allow the product to dry completely before deflating, folding, and storing it in a clean, dry, and shaded place.

2. Never Store a Wet Inflatable

If water gets inside the inflatable during use or storage, remove as much water as possible. Then fully inflate the product in a well-ventilated area and allow it to dry completely. Never fold or store an inflatable while it is still damp, as trapped moisture can lead to mold, mildew, and material damage.

3. Store the Blower Properly

Keep the blower in a dry, well-ventilated location to prevent moisture damage. Make sure it is clean and completely dry before storing it for an extended period.

4. Check During Long-Term Storage

If the inflatable will not be used for a long time, inspect it periodically. Check for moisture, unfold and inflate it occasionally in a ventilated area, and wipe away any dust to keep the material in good condition.
