Wind Safety Guidance for Bouncy Castle & Inflatable Hire in Rugby

At Rugby Inflatables, your safety is our top priority. As a trusted provider of bouncy castle hire in Rugby and surrounding areas, we strictly follow guidance from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

Whether you’re hiring a bouncy castle or two, we ensure everything is used safely, responsibly, and in full compliance with UK safety standards.

👉 With every outdoor inflatable hire, we provide both a wind safety guidance document and a professional anemometer, giving you everything needed to monitor conditions safely.

Safe Wind Speed Limits for Inflatables

For safe outdoor bouncy castle hire, wind conditions must always be considered:

  • Maximum safe wind speed: 24 mph (38 km/h)
  • Equivalent to Force 5 on the Beaufort Scale (small trees begin to sway)

Some inflatables may have lower operating limits depending on size and type.

👉 Always follow the safety instructions provided with your inflatable hire.

Wind Monitoring – Included With Every Hire

We go further than most by providing:

✔️ A Wind Safety Guidance Sheet

✔️ A professional anemometer (wind speed meter)

✔️ A full demonstration on setup and safe use

✔️ Clear instructions for monitoring and recording wind speeds

This ensures your bouncy castle hire is fully HSE-compliant and safely managed throughout your event.

Your Responsibilities During Hire

To maintain safe use of your inflatable hire, you must:

  • Check wind speed every 30 minutes (minimum)
  • Record wind readings throughout the event
  • Ensure monitoring is carried out by a responsible adult (18+)
  • Stop use immediately if conditions become unsafe

⚠️ If wind speed cannot be measured, the inflatable must not be used outdoors

When to Stop Using Your Bouncy Castle

For safe bouncy castle hire in Rugby, stop use immediately if:

  • Wind speeds approach or exceed 24 mph (38 km/h)
  • Weather becomes gusty or unpredictable
  • You cannot continue monitoring wind speed
