Plugging In Your Inflatable

A Landmark Guide for Plugging In Your Inflatable

Because cold-air inflatables have fan systems to keep them inflated, they require electricity to operate. This guide will walk you through what you’ll need to plan for power at your events.

Where do I get power?

You can use wall outlets or generators to power up your inflatable displays.

Wall Outlets

Do you have easy access to electricity at your events? Most of our inflatables can be plugged in to a standard wall outlet, or a standard outlet box provided at trade shows or outdoor events.

Generators

For outdoor events without access to outlets, like parades and festivals, you may need to use a generator. For most of our inflatables, you will be able to find an appropriate generator from a hardware store or rental company.

"[There was] fun, excitement, and encouragement for everyone to actually walk under/through [the arch] and it worked. We have cheerleaders and small children at the finish line by the arch handing out stickers, saying ‘I did it.’ Before we had the arch, [people] would straggle in anywhere."

- Jackie Allen, March of Dimes

"It was a big success! Customers were stopping to take their pictures with the inflatable pheasant and it helped draw in interstate traffic."

- M. Kettler, Cabela's

“We wanted to convey our 'money-saving' message; what better way than a 14-foot-tall inflatable booth with money flying around in it?”

- B. Hoffman, Hydra-Flex

"We usually have to keep the arch up for at least 30 minutes after our races since so many people want to get their photos taken with it!"

- Art Boulet, Muddy Monk

“This has created tremendous buzz around town and we have received a great deal of compliments on the Big Tire. Exposure is my goal, and the inflatable does that better than anyone, including me, can do at these events. The Big Tire never takes a break, gets tired or has to take a call. It just keeps shining bright and the kids love it.”
