SHOULD AN INFLATABLE BEGIN TO DEFLATE OR ANY OTHER EMERGENCIES:

Emergencies can arise for various reasons. The following are a few examples of emergencies and how they can be handled. This is strictly a guide. Please use common sense when an emergency occurs.

Electrical Power: Electric is the responsibility of the renter. We will provide the appropriate extension cord to power our equipment. All equipment must be placed within 100 feet of the power source. We are not permitted to connect to any temporary wiring unless it has been inspected and signed off by a  licensed electrician. All inflatables require one dedicated circuit for each required blower. A dedicated circuit has its own circuit breaker without any other equipment plugged in. This does not correspond to the number of outlets. Typical wiring consists of multiple outlets on one circuit. This means all outlets on that circuit must be unused.  When a loss of power occurs the inflatable will slowly start to deflate. Remain calm! You will have sufficient time to help the riders to quickly and safely exit the ride. This situation tends to cause panic . . . unless the operator stays calm and relaxed. Talk calmly to those inside telling them not to panic while you are helping them walk out. Check to see if the blowers have come unplugged or the cords are unplugged from the outlet. If so, plug them back in and the ride will re-inflate. Do not leave the ride unattended to check on any problem. Empty the ride and then address the issue. We will not be responsible for any electrical failures caused by the power source.

If the inflatable deflates and the entrance is not found, please advise the children not to panic. Instruct them to find the colored square on the roof,  push it out, and exit the inflatable.

If the slide begins to deflate, inform the children to slide down the unit and exit it as quickly as possible. Do not leave the ride unattended!

With any additional questions call 330-793-JUMP (5867) during business hours.

WEATHER POLICY:

You may cancel your reservation up to the day of your event. Your deposit will be applied to a future, available date, NO REFUND. You must contact a representative of Austintown Bounce, Inc. prior to us leaving our warehouse. In bad weather conditions, we reserve the right to cancel.

Bad weather can arrive in the form of snow, rain, lightning or strong wind. In each case you want to evacuate the ride as quickly and safely as possible. Remain calm! If you panic, your riders may also panic. Stay calm and stay focused on your job, which is to help your riders exit the ride quickly, but in an orderly fashion. After everyone has exited the ride, deflate the ride by turning off the blower and moving them to a dry location.

If winds exceed 10 mph or more and/or sudden inclement weather, it is the lessee’s responsibility to shut down the ride immediately.

Damage: If the ride becomes damaged while in your operation, take the following steps.

If the ride is ripped or otherwise begins to lose air, assist all riders from the ride and deflate it. Write down what happened, when, and any other details you observed and turn this report in to Austintown Bounce, Inc.

Should the inflatable deflate, or if you experienced any other problems with the equipment, please call an Austintown Bounce, Inc. representative at (330) 793-5867  before allowing or engaging in further use of the inflatable. Do not leave the ride unattended.

*Upon delivery and setup of the inflatable, a Rental Agreement and Acknowledgment of Risk form, must be signed by the Lessee and Lessor before use of the inflatable.

*If a problem occurs or a situation arrises, Austintown Bounce, Inc. and or their representative must be contacted immediately to be made aware of any problems, issues, or injuries. No refunds or credit will be issued without timely notification during your event.
