No plug socket near the inflatable? That does not always mean you need to hire a full generator. For certain compatible castles, a petrol blower can keep the unit inflated directly, making it a practical alternative for parties and events held in fields, substantial gardens and other locations away from mains electricity.
A standard inflatable setup uses an electric blower connected to a mains socket. A petrol blower performs the inflation job without depending on electricity from a building or generator.
Once started, it supplies the continuous airflow needed to keep a compatible inflatable fully inflated. This can simplify a remote outdoor setup because there is no long extension cable running back towards a distant house, garage or clubhouse.
Petrol blowers are particularly useful when:
The suitability of a petrol blower depends on the exact inflatable being hired. It should not be added based only on the event location. Tell us which castle, slide or assault course you have selected so our team can confirm whether this option will work.
The choice is less about which machine is “better” and more about the equipment that needs to be operated.
A petrol blower may make sense when:
The Diesel Generator – 6kva may be more appropriate when:

At a remote event, the distance to the nearest socket is only part of the problem. A long cable may also need to cross a path, queue, sports field or public route. Using a petrol blower with a compatible inflatable can remove the need for that mains connection.
This can be useful at school events, community galas, sports grounds, outdoor weddings and charity days where the most convenient entertainment area is nowhere near a building.
Petrol blowers may be considered for suitable equipment within Bouncy Castles, Assault Courses and Inflatable Slides. Compatibility must always be confirmed for the individual product.
Our trained staff will place and start the petrol blower as part of the agreed inflatable setup. We will check that it is operating correctly and explain any relevant requirements to the responsible person.
Once the petrol blower is running, customers and guests must not touch, adjust or switch it off unless a member of our team has specifically given permission.
The blower forms part of the operating installation. Moving or interfering with it could interrupt the airflow, affect the inflatable or create an unsafe situation.
Petrol blowers are very heavy. Do not attempt to lift, drag or reposition one after installation.
If its location causes a problem, stop guests from approaching the area and contact us for instructions. The solution is not to move it closer to the castle or turn it towards another direction without approval.
The area around the blower should remain clear of:
Good information allows us to prepare the right setup. When asking about a petrol blower, provide:
Photographs of the proposed position may also be helpful, particularly at fields and large private grounds where access or layout is unclear.
Petrol blowers can be supplied with suitable inflatable hires in Huddersfield, Wakefield, Brighouse, Holmfirth, Kirkburton and Highburton. They appear with our other practical equipment in Fun Games / Extras.
