So what happens if you rent a bounce house for your party and it rains? It's a question we get all the time at Wow Inflatables, and it's a good one.Don't let the fear of rain ruin your party plans. We've been delivering bounce houses and water slides to families in Macon, Warner Robins, Griffin, and all over Middle Georgia for over 20 years. We've seen it all when it comes to weather, and we're here to help you have a great party, rain or shine.

The Big Question: Can You Use a Bounce House in the Rain?

The short answer is: it depends. A light sprinkle is usually not a problem. Our bounce houses are made of durable, commercial-grade vinyl that can handle a little bit of water. In fact, a little rain can sometimes make a water slide even more fun.However, heavy rain, strong winds, or lightning are a different story. Safety is our number one priority at Wow Inflatables. If the weather gets bad, you need to get everyone out of the inflatable right away.Here’s a simple rule to follow: if you wouldn't feel safe standing outside in the storm, you shouldn't be in a bounce house.

Wow Inflatables' Weather Policy: We Make It Easy

We know you can't control the weather. That's why we have a flexible weather policy that's designed to be fair to you. If you need to cancel your rental due to bad weather, just give us a call. As long as you cancel before we deliver the inflatable, we'll be happy to work with you to reschedule your party for another day.We watch the weather forecast closely in the days leading up to your party. If we see that there's a high chance of storms, we'll call you to talk about your options. We'll never force you to take an inflatable if you're not comfortable with the weather.

What to Do if It Starts Raining During Your Party

So what happens if the bounce house is already set up in your yard and it starts to rain? Here's what you should do:1.Get Everyone Out: The first thing you need to do is get everyone out of the inflatable. The surface can get slippery when it's wet, and we don't want anyone to get hurt.2.Turn Off the Blower: Once everyone is out, turn off the blower that keeps the inflatable inflated. This will cause it to deflate.3.Cover the Blower: If you can, cover the blower with a tarp or move it to a dry place like a garage or covered porch. This will protect it from the rain.4.Wait for the Rain to Stop: Once the rain stops, you can turn the blower back on and re-inflate the bounce house. Be sure to wipe down the inside with a towel to dry it off before letting anyone back in.

Tips for a Rainy Day Party

Even if it rains, you can still have a great party. Here are a few tips for making the best of a rainy day:•Have a Backup Plan: If you're worried about rain, have a backup plan. This could be as simple as moving the party inside for a little while. Have some board games, movies, or other indoor activities ready to go.•Rent a Tent: If you have the space, you can rent a tent to put over your party area. This will keep your guests dry and give them a place to hang out if it rains.•Embrace the Rain: If it's just a light sprinkle, why not embrace it? Put on some rain boots and let the kids splash in the puddles. A little rain never hurt anyone!
