Water slides in summer always hide a lot of dirt. Children play in muddy places when the bouncer is set up in your backyard and get covered with dirt on clothes and hands. All this dirt is collected on the inflatable house easily. Regular cleaning your inflatable house is imperative, but you can wonder where to start. Fortunately, it’s easier to clean when you have the right tools. This article covers how to clean a bounce house in the right way.
Why do we need to clean a water slide?
Cleaning a bounce house has the following benefits:
Prevent virus. Children have a greater risk of viral infections than adults. They have less developed immune systems and can get life-threatening illnesses easily. A dirty inflatable is a house of the virus. Therefore, clean it regularly, so your children are not exposed to infections.
Durability. The water slide must be dry before it is stored. If it is damp when you store it, mold and mildew can chew your inflatable house. Therefore, you should ensure there is dry when you store them.
Avoid accidents. Take time to wash it is necessary. While cleaning, it is an opportunity to check if the stitches are firm. You can replace it when weak stitches to ensure kids safety. Your child’s safety is paramount.

Steps to clean your inflatable house
Here are easy steps to follow:
Step 1: do a complete inspection
Before cleaning the water slide, we should conduct a complete product inspection. Put the bouncer in an open space to check it for damage, mold, or the bounce house for other fallen items (we need to clean it up). And then, inspect the removable parts and dirt or damage on the body.
Step 2: do dry cleaning
Use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum the inside. After vacuuming, use a broom or a soft brush to sweep the whole area of the water slide.
Step 3: do a “wet” cleaning- a deeper clean
Spray the entire area with a cleaner. Scrub with a soft brush. This process will remove noticeable stains, caked-on-grime, or lingering odors. Pay attention to the crevices and fittings of the bounce house. This is often the favorite place for dirt and bacteria, remove them, and you will have a brand new water slide.
Step 4: do final clean with a non-bleach-based disinfectant
Disinfecting removes flu viruses or any other infections. Use bleach-free wipes to clean areas they touch. Please don’t use bleach disinfectants because they cause fading and wear. Make sure the bounce house is safe, and the kids will have double fun. Action Air’s water slide use heavy-duty puncture-resistant materials with two to four needles. Easy to clean and disinfect.
Step 5: dry the inflatable
Say goodbye to mold and mildew. You can dry with clean towels and leave the inflatable to dry them in cool place for next time’s use.
