Power Requirements 

Most of or inflatable devices run off of 1, 2, or 3 fans each fan can draw up to 20 amps of power this means that if the device requires more than one fan you will need to have available two separate outlets that are on separate breakers in a residential setting. If you require more than one fan and do not have access to safisont power we can provide generators to rent to meet those needs. 

​

CAN I HAVE AN INFLATABLE AT A PARK?

Yes! Inflatables are great for parks. You must contact the park, in advance, to let them know that you would like to have an inflatable present. If a 110 volt outlet is not available,  a generator will be required and you may arrange this or we can supply one for you at an additional charge.

​

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR UNDERGROUND UTILITIES?

Our units must be staked into the ground or we can provide sand bags depending on whether it is inside or outside. If the unit requires staking into the ground for stability and safety, we must install stakes. Therefore, the renter is responsible for having all utilities located prior to their party.

​

Insurance?

Upside Rentals carries 5 million liability insurance policy and can add as additionally insured an minisaplity or special event to its policy.

Please note that you may need your own insurance for events that are public and heled on property that is not your own,

​

What is the difference between a private event and a public event?

Private events are typically birthday parties, club social events, bbqs, etc. Additional insurance from provincial safety associations - AEDARSA (Alberta Elevating Devices & Amusement Rides Safety Association), TSASK (for Saskatuan) just to name two. This is required for public events, thus the increased cost for corporate and public Events. “A public event, as the name suggests, could refer to any event open for the general public. Exhibitions, expositions, fairs, festivals, entertainment, cause-related, fundraising, and leisure events are all examples of a public events. Any event that is a one-time or periodic, free or ticketed, cultural, charitable or cause-related, and conducted for the purpose of attracting revenue, support, awareness, and/or for entertainment purposes, and created by and/or for the general public is generally referred to as a public event.”

WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL MY RESERVATION?

No Problem. Just give us a call, you must do so at least 72 hours in advance. There is no cancellation fee. However, we would appreciate as much notice as possible so we have a chance to rent your reserved inflatable to someone else as we typically have a waiting list.

​

WHAT IS YOUR POLICY IF THERE IS INCLEMENT WEATHER?

Inflatables cannot be used if there are winds, including gusts of 30 km/hr or more. (This does happen in windy Alberta……), and they cannot be used in the rain. It would not be safe for your children. We therefore reserve the right to cancel, should the weather be unfavorable. If the weather looks like it will be unsafe prior to delivery, we will call you and discuss whether we should cancel the rental and reschedule your event. If we set up the unit, and the weather later turns inclement (rain or higher winds), we will pick up the unit according to schedule. However, in this event, no refund will be given.

​

ARE YOUR UNITS CLEAN?

All of our inflatables and equipment are cleaned and serviced after each day. We want you to be comfortable in knowing that you are providing your family and guests with fresh and hygienic rental products. You owe it to your kids to ensure you are renting from a reliable and registered company.

​

DO I NEED TO CLEAN THE BOUNCY CASTLE WHEN THE PARTY IS OVER?

You, the customer, will need to inspect the unit to make sure that there will only be a reasonable amount of cleaning required by our staff. If the unit is not in the same condition of cleanliness, there will be an additional cleaning fee of $100.

HOW MUCH SPACE DO I NEED TO SET UP A BOUNCER?

​

WILL THE INFLATABLE HARM MY LAWN?

We cannot guarantee that the inflatables will not affect your lawn. In most cases, it will only temporarily flatten the grass, which should recover in a few days.

​

WHAT SHOULD WE DO TO GET READY FOR OUR INFLATABLE RENTAL?

The first thing we like to tell people is…..”measure.” Make sure you know where you want your inflatable rental, and make sure there is enough room. Also, make sure your outside plug is working. That means…. plug something in and test it! We need electricity within 100 feet maximum. The second thing is, mow your lawn the day before, not the same day or the morning of set up. It will help keep the inflatable clean for your kids’ enjoyment. Also, if you have a dog, please clean the yard of any waste before we come. It will help to keep odors away while your kids are jumping, and will prevent any soiling of our unit(s). If you have a waterslide rental, don’t water your lawn for a few days before your party. Waterslides use a lot of water, and if your grass needs it, it will absorb it a lot better if it is dry.

 

WHAT ARE YOUR SAFETY RULES / REGULATIONS?

1. Always have adult supervision at ALL times, when children are in or around the unit.

2. Children must remove their shoes, glasses, ball caps and all other sharp objects prior to entering the unit.

3. Keep the number of children in the unit at or below the number indicated in the rental agreement.

4. No horseplay or flips.

5. Absolutely NO gum, food, drinks, candy, silly string or foreign articles in the unit. These items, especially silly string, are very harmful to the vinyl. And of course, choking could occur while jumping, sliding or climbing. Violation of this rule can result in additional charges for cleaning.

6. Keep smaller children out of the unit when older children are jumping. Allow a separate time for just the small children to participate and enjoy the fun. We do have a smaller bounce house / slide combo unit for smaller children.

7. Do not move the unit from the set up location for any reason.

8. Do not use near water.

9. Have FUN!
