A Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up Your Outdoor Display
Setting up outdoor decor is an exciting weekend activity. Follow these simple steps to ensure your decorations look great and stay secure all season long.
Step 1: Test Everything First Before taking anything outside, plug in your new inflatables indoors to ensure the fan works, the fabric inflates fully, and all internal LED lights illuminate. Check your extension cords for any wear and tear.
Step 2: Map Out Your Power Sources Plan where each decoration will go based on the location of your outdoor outlets. Use outdoor-rated, weather-resistant extension cords. To keep things incredibly convenient, invest in an outdoor stake timer. This allows you to set your display to turn on automatically at dusk and shut off at midnight, saving energy and giving you one less thing to worry about.
Step 3: Secure Your Inflatables Properly Winter weather brings wind and snow, so securing your decor is vital. Every quality inflatable comes with tether ropes and yard stakes. Zip all the zippers closed, turn on the fan, and let the figure inflate completely. Once it is standing tall, attach the tethers to the built-in loops and stake them firmly into the ground at a 45-degree angle. Pull the lines taut so the figure stands perfectly upright.
Step 4: Keep the Area Clear Make sure the air intake fan on the bottom of the inflatable is completely clear of leaves, tall grass, or deep snow. If the fan gets blocked, the decoration will not inflate properly and the motor could overheat.
Simple Tips for Maintenance and Storage
Taking good care of your decorative items ensures they will remain a beloved part of your holiday traditions for years to come.
During the holiday season, it is generally best practice to unplug your inflatables during severe windstorms or heavy ice rain. Allowing them to deflate safely to the ground prevents the fabric from tearing and keeps the tethers from snapping under extreme weather pressure. Once the storm passes, gently brush off any heavy snow before inflating them again.
When January arrives and it is time to pack up, choose a dry, sunny day to take your display down. Unzip the bottom vents and let the air completely escape. It is incredibly important that the fabric is 100% dry before you fold it; otherwise, mildew can form during the warmer months. Fold the fabric neatly, gently rolling it to push out any remaining air. Store the folded inflatable, along with its stakes and tethers, in a sturdy plastic storage bin with a secure lid to keep it safe from moisture and dust until next year.
