Inflatable Products
– Aquaglide makes some of the highest quality inflatable products in
the world. With proper care and maintenance, our products are expected to last for years
under normal use. We list important tips and instructions below. If unsure about any point,
please reach us through our website at Aquaglide.com/contact-us.
Note
: see Anchoring instructions (below) before inflating this item. Strong winds can make it
difficult to control this product. Be aware of weather conditions before installation.
Air Pump
- Use an air pump recommended for inflating your product. For products this
size, use of a high-volume electrical pump is best. Air pressure requirements are low
– 5.0psi (0,35bar) or less. Air compressors designed for high-pressure inflation are not
recommended because they can easily lead to over-inflation.
Valve(s)
– This product uses Halkey Roberts – type (HR) valves. Valve attaches to product
using a threaded backing plate, making it easily replaceable in the
unlikely event of damage.
Access valve using a coin or flat tool to twist the tamper-resistant
cap counter-clockwise. To close, insert the cap and twist clockwise
using the same tool. Note: cap is the secondary air seal. See A.
To inflate, an air pump with Halkey Roberts – type (HR) valve fitting
is required. Insert fitting into valve and twist
clockwise to lock in place. See B.
Valve Operation:
To operate Halkey Roberts
– type (HR) valve, press plunger and turn 90
degrees to set valve for inflate and product use
(plunger out = 1-way airflow). Press plunger and
turn 90 degrees to deflate (plunger in = 2-way
airflow). Note: valve is primary air seal. After
inflation, close with cap for secondary seal. See C.
Proper Working Pressure
for each chamber is
listed below. Do not overfill or underfill. Excessive
pressure can cause damage to the product
and may void the warranty. Do not use without
adequate air pressure. Product can become
unstable if underfilled and may not support
indicated capacity. Use a pressure gauge (manometer) to carefully monitor air pressure in
the product especially during hot or cool periods.
Chart 1 – Working Pressure by Chamber - Solarium
1. Locate a flat, dry area with access to outlet for electrical pump. The best setup position
will also make launching easy. Never drag product as damage may occur.
2. Unfold product completely and locate Main Valve [1]. To help future storage, closely note
original folding & packaging method. Remove valve cap and confirm valve is in inflate (1-
way airflow) position.
3. Insert air pump hose with proper valve fitting into Main Valve [1], lock into place. Use
pump to inflate Main Valve [1] to Working Pressure as shown in Chart 1. Check for proper
pressure using gauge (manometer). Replace valve cap.
