How to Clean a Flooded Bounce House Combo Waterslide
Вставка

- Here we go! I'm going to show you how to clean a flooded bounce house waterslide combo.
This thing was SUPER flooded buy a thunderstorm that dropped 4+ inches of rain on the night of Mothers Day. It was supposed to be a light rain, instead we got HAMMERED!
So, I'm claustrophobic to a pretty large extent, so for me to build up the courage to do this was huge, but I was faced with an option...either be a bad ass business owner, or stay in my comfort zone. Needless to say I'm choosing "bad ass" every freaking time!
So before you go climbing inside your flooded bounce house be sure you have a few things set up;
1. Be on a circuit breaker where the odds of it tripping the breaker is as close to ZERO as possible
2. Go in with a knife in your pocket
3. Take everything you need in with the 1st time - going in and out is rough on the zipper vent!

I USUALLY carry a non-submersible pump (link down below) to move the water out at the pick up, but I didn't have it on me for this pick up. So I had to actually open the vent, and slowly pull the bounce house back to move the INSANE amount of water over to drain, and there was still over 100lbs of water in it when I rolled it!

Nick quit his 16 year "career" as as a District Manager for Journeys shoes in August 2019, and while he worked to scale The Jump Off, he drove uber, sold trash that he found on the side of the road, and picked up as many odd jobs (like building swing sets) as he could.
Then in late 2019, Nick hit "The Bounce House lottery" (originleadersh...) and when the pandemic shut everything down in 2020, he sprung into action and took that moment to make The Jump Off what it is today!

work for a bounce house company in NC. do cleaning, delivery/pickup and everything in between. im the smallest dude on the crew so im normally the one crawling in. its not too bad but definitely not my favorite thing to do. awesome job showcasing everything to do when waterlogged!
Very thankfull for the video. Theirs no other video like it. My 16 ft high 13 ft wide 26 ft long waterslide got flooded I couldn't find anything on how to drain it. But I found this video and now I have an idea of what to do atleast before I was so lost , just showing my gratitude. Thankyou
You bet!! The other thing you can do that I didn’t mention on this video is prop up one side with 2-3 other blowers or chairs so all the water runs to one side, makes it a little easier as long as the zipper vent is on the side. That technique is KILLER for bounce houses!
Thankyou again I was going to try that too . Highly appreciated 🤗
He was right killer mover! Just finished. Thanks man couldn't be happier back to making money . The vacuum you used is amazing.
@@seveneleven4385 you bet man!! Keep hustling!
You do know you can just lift and tilt the unit up in the air put a dolly or 2-3 chairs underneath so it can drain all the water out on its own. Much easier that way. We do it all the time.
Yep for sure man! I actually discovered that move like 2 days after filming this. Haha. Makes the bounce houses much easier not having to crawl around in them!
@@nick_o_glass 🤣 Live & Learn! Good to see you out there Gettin' It! Hard to find good workers in this industry! Gotta make sure they get it done the easy way. Good Luck!
@@jamesgil8075 do you do it inflated or deflated?
@@natashagonzalez8063 inflated. When you raise it make sure the baffles are facing towards the ground for maximum drainage. Put chairs under it to brace it or just flip it all the way on it side and leave it that way for an hour or so to dry out after it has drained. This will keep it from mildewing inside
@@nick_o_glass Which side would you prop up on this specific unit? I have the same one and it's waterlogged, would love to just prop it up as I don't have a vac.
If you have a small bouncer that gets wet, I prop it up about 30 degrees with a dolly. It gets the water to run down and hopefully out of a seam or tube.
I probably should try your technique when a large inflatable gets rained on, as they can take forever to dry.
Yeah propping them is a good trick too. I’ll do that when I can so the water all runs down to the vent so I don’t have to crawl all over.
Just started up my rentals and collected a very wet rained on unit. You were my first stop for solutions. Loved your technique a d those shared in the comments. Subscribed a few weeks ago to see how to run a 1 man show. It's no joke but I've loved every weekend of it so far!
Yes dude! You’re gonna win man, work hard and just stay patient, you’re gonna build a powerhouse. I’m trying to bring positivity to this industry and people like you is who will help spread that message. Thanks so much Jaleel!
*That's funny I came across your channel couple weeks ago we do the same technique when cleaning after wet ass weekends. Also love your content subscribed 2 weeks ago. Keep up the great work and driven mentality.* 💪
Thank you so much!! Yeah I like to just get in there and get after it. No time to waste. Just go.
@@nick_o_glass absolutely
Great Job!
Thank you!
If I can't man the zipper for him, my son always carries a pocket knife or box cutter inside. Better safe than sorry! Thanks for the video.
Smart! I go in them all the time now. No biggie haha
heck yea i will lol. when i was in the army i was the shortest. i am 5ft 5 lol. i had to go into the water buffalo and clean it. water tank lol
😂
Yes
Agreed ✊🏼
I just bought my first bouncer but my biggest regret is that it has no zippers! But it’s not a water type of bouncer so hopefully no issues. Great video though!
yeah I used to have 2 with no zippers. They were OLD, so that's weird you got one without. It takes a little longer to deflate, and if you get water in there you have to just vac it out through the blower tube.
If it fills with water by chance, air it up, lift or have someone help you lift it in the air. While one of you holds the unit in the air, have the other person put chairs under the unit a little less than halfway under it to support the unit and let it drain on its own through the threading. Just make sure the baffles are parallel to the floor and sky and not right to left or water will still be in the baffles. Hope this is understandable and of help.
@@jamesgil8075 yep! Taught that one to my guys this week at cleaning.
Ty
yep!
How do I clean it if I don’t have way to get inside
Vacuum done the blower tube!
Ur the man! 💪🏾
Thanks major!! *salutes
Can you make a video how to get stains off the inflatables
I did!! It’s a silly string video but same method applies for the most part. Don’t use a putty knife though
Well done I like bounce house
Thank you!
So I have a question for u do u enjoy your working alone
@@ajayikamiye1226 yep! I have 4 employees so I don’t work along too often but when I do I enjoy it a lot!
Sorry to ask can you send me a picture of the biggest bounce house u have
@@ajayikamiye1226 go check them all out! Itsthejumpoff.com
Tbh it’s the perfect hiding spot
No question haha
I agree like ur at a birthday party with a bounce house and they play hide and seek , oooh! Chef's kiss!
Mine has a lot of mud how do I clean it ?
With a rag and bucket of water!
So that what's inside the water slide bouncy house jumper this whole time.
It’s MEEEE 😁
great videos......great advice.... where did you get the black dollie

Is there no concern for it being on concrete without having a tarp? I worry from them moving from bouncing and it wearing a hole in the bottom. Have you not had that happen?
Not an issue whatsoever. Never have tarped on concrete set ups or when cleaning on concrete, which is every time now inside the new warehouse
I bought a used one like this and cleaned it like crazy, it seemed to be smelling from inside bad of mildew. I wonder if I could go inside the zipper and scrub all the walls that way? Would it dry out if I left it sitting up for a while even though it’s inside?
Yep go inside and attack!
What type of shop vac do you use?
Shop vac (amzn.to/2S62eTt)
30' hose (amzn.to/3fGh78a)
Hello 👋🏽 do all brands of inflatables flood when they get rain on or only certain brand/manufacturers ?
Yep
What causes that much water to get inside in the first place?
Rain
I bought my first jumper it has weird stains do u have a tip how to clean it I think it was wet and never got clean
Cleaning is very basic. Water and soap, a rag, and me clean magic eraser. Anything you can’t get off with that is a stain “forever”. All my favorite stuff is here! Https://nickglassett.com/bounce-house-business-starter-kit/

Looking to get into the rental business. What size is this. Have seen it on various sites you've mention but have a hard time knowing how large the units are based on the photos having nothing to reference
It’s about 11ft high, 12ft wide, and 40ft long when the pool is on it. It’s from spacewalksales.com
Yo❤
Green night vision looking for ghost
Haha. Yeah kinda creepy huh?
How do you advertise
Watch this vide, tip number 9, starts at 11:11( Make a wish!), is my main marketing techniques, plus I do lots of FB marketplace but I make the best posts I can there, no sappy stuff! ua-cam.com/video/JPXHWOf-duA/v-deo.html
It's a small air inflated environment
Yes. Slightly claustrophobic ha
Have you considered a small dehumidifier?
No…but not awful idea
thats why a never rent my combos on rainy day
Cause you hate money and love disappointment for kids??? Hard work makes me happy.
@@nick_o_glass no i yust dont want to dry combo for next 3 days for one rent
Mine won’t even stand up from all the water
It’s on the roof?
i can but than i cant sleep
Sleep inside it’s peaceful!
I would not do that i will be scared
I was the 1st time! Haha
