If you live in an area with harsh winters, you need to take extra care when storing your bounce house during the off-season. Cold temperatures and snow can damage your inflatable if it is not properly stored. In this post, we’ll discuss how to store your bounce house during the winter.
First, you need to ensure that your bounce house is properly cleaned and dried before storing it. Use a soft-bristled brush to sweep away any dirt and debris, and then use a damp cloth to wipe down the entire inflatable. Make sure that the inflatable is completely dry before storing it.
Once your bounce house is clean and dry, you can begin to deflate it. Remove any stakes or anchors that are holding it in place, and turn off the blower. Allow the inflatable to completely deflate before folding it up.
When it comes to folding your bounce house, it’s important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Most bounce houses are folded in a specific way to ensure that they fit back into their storage bag properly. If you’re unsure how to fold your bounce house, check the manufacturer’s website or contact their customer service team for guidance.
Next, you need to store your bounce house in a dry and cool place. Avoid storing it in a garage or basement that is prone to dampness, as this can lead to mold and mildew growth. Instead, store your bounce house in a dry and cool area, such as a storage shed or attic.
If you’re concerned about pests getting into your bounce house during the winter, consider storing it in a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. This will help prevent mice and other rodents from getting inside your inflatable and causing damage.
Finally, make sure that your bounce house is not exposed to any extreme temperatures during the winter. Avoid storing it in an area that gets too cold, as this can cause the vinyl material to become brittle and crack. Also, avoid storing it in an area that gets too hot, as this can cause the material to expand and potentially damage the seams.
By following these tips, you can safely store your bounce house during the winter and ensure that it remains in good condition for the next season.
