Water Walking Ball FAQ page will answer specific questions about renting our water walking balls with inflatable pool.

We have separate pages with our contact information, weather & cancellation policy, bounce house delivery area and privacy policy

Can I rent the water walking balls only and use my own pool?

No, the water walking balls must be used in our inflatable pool and supervised by our employees.

Can I put the water walking ball pool in my backyard or fenced in area? How much room is needed to set up and operate?

Yes, if you have AT LEAST a 3’ wide gate and clear path for us to access your yard. The area must be completly flat and level. The minimum required space to operate is 40’ wide, 40 feet long and 10 feet tall for the 33 x 33 pool and 30 x 30 for the 24 x 20 pool with 4 water balls.

How long does the inflatable pool take to fill up and how much water does it hold?

The 33 x 33 inflatable pool will take approx 8 to 12 hours to fill up depending on your water pressure. The 24 x 20 pool will take 6 -8 hours to fill. The renter must supply a water hose and consistent water source to fill up the pool and monitor the water level during filling. We may need to deliver the pool the day or night before to start filling up depending on your start time. Our staff will not supervise the pool during filling.
Our inflatable pool holds approx. 5,460 gallons of water at 1' deep in the 33 x 33 pool and 4250 gallons in the 24 x 20 pool at 1.5 feet deep.

Can I have water delivered if needed? Can it be filled faster than 6 to 12 hours?

Yes, If you need water delivered for events in areas without running water or to save time we can refer you directly to a local water delivey company. They can fill our inflatable pool with water in about 30 minutes using a 4" fire hose and or a high pressure pump. You can arrange the details directly with the water delivey company. If you are a city or school you may be able to have the fire department come and fill it up but remimber you will need around 5,460 gallons of water for the 33 x 33 pool and 4,250 gallons for the 24 x 20 pool.

What if we don’t have a water hose? Do you rent them?

Yes, We rent commercial grade water hoses for $4.99 per 50 feet. Maximum water hose rental is 1,000 feet on flat level ground. This price includes hooking up and removing the hose(s). We do not allow our water hoses to be driven over for example (crossing a street or parking lot) You must order the necessary hose(s) when reserving the water walking balls so please make sure to compensate for bends and turns in the water hose(s) when measuring distance (example: going around a walkway, doorway or flower bed will use up several feet of hose)

What surfaces can the water walking balls with pool be set up on?

Our inflatable pool can be set up on most surfaces like concrete, asphalt or grass. Our inflatable pool cannot be set up on dirt, rocks or a rough uneven surface.

Is adult supervision recommended or required? If we need more staff can you provide it?

Yes, adult supervision is REQUIRED the entire time the inflatable pool is in use or has water in it. Never leave a pool unsupervised for any reason.

Yes, we provide 2 event staff to operate and supervise the water walking balls during your party times. You can easly use 4 to 5 people total for maximun output and you are welcome to provide your own helpers and our staff will assist them with what to do. Your provided staff or helpers must be at least 18 years old. We can also provide more staff at a rate of $35.00 per hour but the staff must be ordered in advance. Staff time starts 30 minuets to 1 hour prior to party start time and ends 15 - 30 minuets after party end time. Please call for details on staffing as many things are factored in staff pricing.

Where does the water go after the event is over? Do you take the water with you?

Our inflatable pool will drain the water out onto the ground. There is no hose connection or any other way to remove or divert the water from just running out at the set up area. We must completely drain all of the water at the set up area before moving or transporting the inflatable pool. There is no option for removing our inflatable pool full of water. You may rent a high volume gas powered water pump with enough hoses to pump the water into a drain area but our staff will not assist with this process. We will be happy to give you advise on what to rent or we can handle this process for an adtional charge. This would require a site visit and some pre planning so please call us prior to ordering or at least 7 days prior to your event to set this up.

What is the maximum weight and minimum height requirements for water walking balls?

The maximum weight for participants using the water walking balls is 180 pounds;
minimum height is 30" tall.

Can your water walking balls be delivered and used at a city or private park?

Yes and No, We can deliver to many private parks but you have to check with the person or office that oversees or manages that park. Private parks should have a sign with contact information or contact the home owners association or development group for details. Most city parks do not allow water related items of any kind to be used in city parks. In any case you will need to make written arrangements with the park prior to delivery for water service. You will also need to check the sprinkler schedule and insurance requirements. Get all approvals in writing as most park offices are closed on the weekends and you may have to deal with a park ranger or officer after hours. Water delivery service will be required for use at a park because filling with a water hose is really not an option at a park or remote location.

I see other companies also rent water walking balls, what’s the difference?

The sky is the limit with party rental companies in Colorado but you can always trust Gravity Play Events to provide you with the most professional, most reliable equipment available.
