Below are some tips to help you get many years use out of your Happy Hop jumping castle:

1) .Always packs your inflatable away dry and clean. This is particularly important if you are packing away a water slide at the end of the season, otherwise mould will develop during the winter. Even on dry days, the underside of your bouncer can get damp from the ground so leave it out to dry, particularly if you plan to pack it away for a long time.

2) Place a tarpaulin underneath your bouncer prior to use. Even if you go to the effort to ensure that there are no sticks, rocks or other sharp/rough objects on the ground where your bouncer is going, there is a chance you will miss something. A tarp underneath your jumping castle or water slide helps minimize wear on the underside by reducing friction and rubbing with the ground.

3) Repair holes and pulled stitching as soon as possible. If you do put a small hole in your bouncer or the stitching starts to come open through wear and tear, repair it while it’s still small and before it becomes a big problem.

4) Keep dogs and other pets away. It may surprise you to know that the number one cause of damage to inflatable jumping castles is from excited dogs biting holes in them. Sharp claws and teeth are not compatible with Happy Hop bouncers so keep the pets away.

5) Supervise, supervise, and supervise. Supervision during play is not only important for safety to ensure there’s no rough play or kids trying to do silly things, it will also give longer life to your bouncer. Younger children do not think like we do and they will not hesitate to take toys, sticks and food onto the bouncer with them to “enhance” their play experience.

6) Keep the big kids off. While Happy Hop bouncers are tough and adults have been to join in on the fun, your bouncer is going to wear out a whole lot quicker if you allow it to be used this way. The stitching is simply not strong enough to withstand the sort of force big kids and adults will place on it if they are on for extended time.

7) Use Armor all or a similar product to protect your bouncer from the sun’s rays. Your bouncer will look like new a whole lot longer using a protestant, but check on a small area first to ensure it does not cause damage. In addition, if you want to do this take care that using a protestant on playing surfaces may cause them to become very slippery and dangerous.

8) Don’t drag the bouncer. If you drag your bouncer while setting it up or putting it away, you will quickly start to wear a hole in it as it rubs on the ground. The same is true if it is in its carry bag as the carry bag is from the same sort of material.
