Welcome
to the Online Safety Certification Program
Our Safety program is both serious and
comprehensive. When you have completed this training program you will have a
very full understanding of the issues and precautions regarding inflatables
which will greatly decrease the likelihood of injuries since most accidents with
inflatables are attributed to operator/supervisor error. If you are renting from
us and reading this you have promised to successfully complete our Safety
Certification Program. If you decide you do not want, or you can not complete
and pass the Safety Certification Program, we will provide trained and certified
staff, for your party, at your expense. At no time will we leave any of our
equipment to be used without a competent, certified supervisor.
Videos
Most of the videos are under a
minute each. Please listen to, and view, each segment. When you press on a link
in the box at the bottom (or to the right,) of this
screen, your computer will get the video segment you requested and
then the computer will prepare the clip to play on a Real One Player, (or
another player,) which is normally already on your computer. The whole
process may take a minute or so depending on the speed of your Internet
connection, the speed of your computer, and how many other people are viewing
the videos at the same time you want to view them. While you are waiting
for the video, use the time to read the included material below. We suggest the videos if
you can only select one training method. The best method is the Video and
written material together, which starts below. The Slide Presentation is
optional. There are step by step photos also below, but you need to watch the
video/read the material to fully understand the photos.
(Sometimes the video on Real Player will stop prematurely, so be sure each segment is viewed
completely!)
Slide Presentation
There are two formats available to download. This one is a
Power Point Presentation.
This one is a
Corel
Presentation Both of these slide presentations
will take a little while to download and then they will play on your computer
using the software associated with them. The Slide Presentations do not
contain photos.
Bounce House Planning:
-
Turn off all sprinklers
including under ground sprinklers.
-
Know where underground gas, plumbing and
water lines are on your property. We will not be responsible for damage to pipes
or plumbing of any kind. PSE&G recommends you call them to know for sure.
-
Air Castles and Slides need an
electrical source, generators
are available for an extra charge.
-
Keep all unnecessary electric wires and
cables away from Air Castles and Slides.
-
Plan a spot in a grassy area or hard, flat
surface away from your house meters and pool.
-
The area must be clear of all sticks,
twigs, branches, toys, and animal related items.
-
Be aware of the
size of the moonwalk you
are renting, add at least a foot or two all around
and then plan where the Air Castles and Slides' unit will go. Some manufacturers
recommend three to six feet of clearance all around the unit.
-
Be sure there is
overhead clearance too. Most
units are 16 feet tall! We need a minimum of 17' for all moonwalks, the combo
units are not as high at 12 feet tall so be sure to have at least 13' for the
combo units..
-
Plan a food, drink and snack area a safe
distance away from Air Castles and Slides.
-
Keep all party toys such as 'silly string'
and other toys away from Air Castles and Slides.
Silly String (and similar products) destroys the fabric, it is prohibited around
Air Castle And Slide Inflatable units.
-
Keep all pets away from Air Castles and
Slides.
-
Keep all sharp objects away from
inflatable Air Castles and Slides units.
