Pillow Maintenance Tips
1.Be sure to check your pea gravel/sand level. Through the winter months the pea gravel or sand can settle and you may need to fill it in. It should be 5 inches minimum above the Air-Pillow edges and edges should never be exposed. Once your Air-Pillow is inflated it is always good to double-check the height of the Air-Pillow. Optimum height should be between 30” and 48”.
2. Over time your Air-Pillow becomes dirty.
When cleaning your Air-Pillow, use a citrus-based cleaner with a rag or mop. We recommend also using a good UV coating such as 303 Aerospace Protectant to help rejuvenate your pillow, it is a great product to help restore and protect against UV rays. It should take about one gallon per pillow, as long as you spread it out
(CLICK HERE for the link to purchase this product on Amazon) If you wish to use a pressure washer, be very cautious to not spray ANY CLOSER than 12 inches from the Air-Pillow. Spraying too close will strip the outside membrane off and thin the lining of the Air-Pillow.
3. Especially now, it is extremely important to regularly sanitize your pillow to keep it as clean as possible. CLICK HERE for info on KenClean Plus, a product most frequently used for cleaning wrestling mats, bounce houses, etc. which we believe would be a great option for germ-control use on our pillows.
4. Now that the Air-Pillow has been checked for safety hazards and looking good, don’t forget the finishing touch...the Jumbo JumperTM Signs. Make sure to post them in a visible location where everyone can see them as they enter the Air-Pillow area. If you have more than one Air-Pillow, it might be good to have one sign posted near each of them. Jumbo JumperTM signs are available to purchase through the online shopping cart at farmtasticfun.com
5. Is your audio system working and in order? It is always good to double check and make sure your portable microphone and/or megaphone are functioning properly. There are pre-recorded rules and music that is timed for a 5 or 7 minute jumping session, other custom recordings or timed music can be purchased upon request.
6. If your pillow isn’t being used throughout the summer months, a
shade cloth is a great investment. The cover will extend the life up to 5 times longer in some cases.
