The Role of Dry and Wet and Hybrid Inflatable Combo Designs in Rental Return on Investment
Economic Benefits of Dry Inflatable Combo Units
“Dry” inflatable combos are typically the primary or most profitable inflatable design in an indoor venue or rental company. Combo units’ lack of water-related hazards such as slips, electrical exposure and biofilm, etc., makes them ideal inflatable units for schools, malls, corporate team-building, and winter events. Operators have noted that combo units, on average, have 30% lower annual maintenance costs than wet models as they do not have to deal with the corrosion of electrical pumps, chemical management of swimming pool chlorine, etc. Dry units for fields have simple design storage. Since they do not have anything to do with water, dry units can be deployed in 15% less time due to less design prep time, making them the more adaptable and versatile inflatable units for rental companies needing services in numerous and diverse climates and clients.
How Wet and Hybrid Inflatable Combo Units Work
Capturing peak seasonal demand, wet and hybrid combo units account for approximately 78% of southern U.S. event revenue. Today’s inflatable wet models offer shaded splash pools, textured, slip resistant, treadable surfaces, and modular water cannons, features that operators reported enhanced event rental prices of 20 to 35% as a result. Hybrid combo units, which have a dry bouncy surface with an integrated splash zone, are booked later in the spring and later in the fall, lessening the dependence on climate for bookings. However, as water is an operating requirement for inflatable wet combo units, they require 25% more total annual labor hours as tenders have to be monitored for swimming pool water chemistry, plant leaks, and the care and maintenance of the water resistant UV coated inflatable unit covers. For seasonal bookings, ROI for dry combo units is high and bookings for seasonal, humid climates can be nearly six times more than dry combo units for arid climates as reported by IAAPA.
