Inflation

  • Inflate to the correct pressure:
  • 3–4 PSI (3.0m Sea Pool)
  • 2.5 PSI (2.4m Sea Pool)
  • Float should feel firm (not squishy). Sides should stay
    firm when standing.
  • Keep the air valve closed (not pushed in) during
    inflation.

Deflation & Storage

  • Press the valve pin to release air.
  • On Sea Pool models, push and twist the pin to lock open for
    faster release.
  • Use hand pump in deflate mode for the last bit of air.
  • Fold in half, then thirds, roll up tightly, tuck in the tail.
  • If wet, leave the bag partly unzipped (approx. 15cm) for
    airflow.

My adapter won’t stay in the valve.

  • Our hand pumps fit perfectly. If using a 12V/240V pump, check the rubber seal—it may be too thick or out of place.
  • Options: hold it in place while inflating, use the supplied hand pump, or purchase a Float Haven pump for a guaranteed fit.

CanI use a 240V pump?

Yes. Stay close, never leave it unattended, and stop once firm. Check PSI with the hand pump.

Howdo I release pressure quickly?

Open the valve and press the pin. Release to stop airflow. Always close the cap after.

Whyare my float sides floppy?

Not inflated to the correct PSI. Use the
hand pump to top up—when firm, sides can hold adults standing or sitting.

Whatif I puncture my float?

Every float comes with a repair kit.

I see small yellow marks near seams—is this normal?

Yes. Minor yellowing can happen with UV exposure and adhesives. It doesn’t affect performance or durability.

Storage & Cleaning

  • Hose down after use if possible (or let the rain do the work).
  • For sunscreen, fake tan, or zinc marks, use mild dish soap or
    baby wipes.
  • On multi-day use in hot weather, let out a little air
    overnight, then top up next day.
  • Dry cup holders (Sea Pool model) before storage.
  • Always dry float fully before long-term storage. Leave bag
    partly open for airflow.

Safety

  • Children must always be supervised.
  • Life jackets recommended for kids.
  • Never leave float in extreme heat unattended.
  • Read the warning label before use.
