How Much Water and Power Does a Water Slide Use?
A water slide connects to a standard garden hose and a regular electrical outlet for the blower, so setup is simple. It uses a steady trickle of water to keep the surface slick, and if an outlet is not nearby, we can bring a generator.
What you need on site
- A standard garden hose and water spigot
- A regular outlet within reach of the setup area (or ask about a generator)
- Level space and a clear path for delivery
Water use is modest since the slide recirculates and only needs a light flow to stay fun and slippery.
