Bouncy Castle Safety

Inflatable play is normally a very safe and good way for children to exercise whilst having fun. Here are some guidelines for staying safe on your bouncy castle.

The three elements that make for a safe inflatable play environment are:

  • Properly manufactured and maintained equipment.
  • Correct operation (pressure, siting, anchorage etc.) of the equipment.
  • Supervision

The PIPA scheme ensures that equipment is tested to a recognised standard both before first use and annually thereafter

DO NOT forget your responsibilities as the customer because often the supervision is down to you!

Play Safe - DOs & DON'Ts on the Bouncy Castle

ALWAYS

  • Have regard to the equipment's intended use
    Users that are outside the intended weight or height range can injure themselves and other users
  • Make sure the blower is at least 1.2 metres from the inflatable
    Serious injury can occur if a user strikes the blower unit
  • Make sure the equipment has a current test certificate
  • Look for the PIPA Tag and check its validity on this site
  • Use surround mats if provided
    These are provided to negate identified risks
  • Ensure that children are supervised at all times by a responsible adult
    The vast majority of accidents occur through lack of, or bad supervision
  • Anchor the inflatable to the ground and ensure that you use every anchor point
    Even in non-windy conditions the inflatable will move and creep (Perhaps taking it dangerously close to the blower)
  • Hire your inflatable from a reputable operator
    Some will try to cut costs on safety by not PIPA testing - Always check
  • Follow the instructions given to you by the hirer - They are there for the safety of your children
  • Hire on the basis of the safest - Not the cheapest
  • Deflate the inflatable after use to prevent unsupervised use.

NEVER

  • Allow users to climb on to the walls
    Most accidents happen this way
  • Deflate the inflatable whilst in use
    Users can strike the ground heavily if you do
  • Use the inflatable if you have any doubt as to its safety
  • Throw objects (or other people!) on to the inflatable
  • Allow users onto the inflatable in high winds

Bouncy Castles - Frequently asked Questions Using a bouncy castle safely

Who is responsible?
The operator of the inflatable must be a responsible adult over the age of 18. This person must ensure the correct age of children are allowed on this inflatable and no one over the  specified age to be allowed entrance. No more than the recommended number of children to be allowed on at any one time – no overcrowding. Neither should any height restriction be broken i.e. the children cannot be taller than the outside wall.

What footware or clothing allowed on the castle?
Socks to be worn at all times but no shoes, spectacles or sharp or dangerous objects. Clothing must not have zips or fashion features which could puncture the castle.

Where should an observer be positioned?
The operator is to be positioned at the base of the inflatable where the front step is located, a whistle is to be used at the first sign of misbehaviour, keeping an eye on the safety and well being of the users.

What activities are suitable by the bouncers?
The Operator must be aware that the children should simply bounce up and down, with no climbing, pushing or horseplay. Care must be taken for users to enter at one side and exit at the other. E g. Enter from the left of the step, exit from the right of the step.

What about bigger bouncers?
Larger more boisterous children should be segregated from  the smaller ones.

What care to be taken by the operator during the hire?
The operator must ensure that the unit remains intact throughout the use, in the event of failure of this, all users are to be safely removed. The inflatable must then be restored before it can be used again.

What do I do if it rains?
The weather conditions are to be monitored, wind rain etc.. The unit should be taken out of use in bad weather. A wet bouncing surface will be very slippery and may risk injury. Dry the inside of the castle when the rain stops and before the castle is used again.

What checks are needed during the hire?
The blower is to be checked regularly to ensure it remains in place and to guard against any accidents or loss of pressure. The operator should look to check that no rubbish blows into the fan, any rubbish around should be removed. No one should have access to the blower or electric sockets. The seams and zips should be monitored, to look out for any tears. The anchorage points to be checked throughout to keep it in position and intact.  

Are there any other hazards?
Take care that users keep away from any anchorage points or cables to avoid tripping.
Before deflation the operator should check thoroughly that there isn't anyone on or
immediately around the unit before deflating and packing away safely.
