Set-Up Instructions:

Location:

Choose an appropriate spot for your pool. Do not have it touching the wall. Keep the pool away from electronics. Keep the pool within 20’-25’ of the tap/toilet if you plan to use the provided submersible water pump and hose. If you plan to have the pool father away, you may need to purchase a longer hose for your own use.

Inflate:

Start by fully inflating the bottom chamber, then the floor and seat. Next, fully inflate the middle chamber and partially inflate the top chamber. Place the liner into the pool and over the edges of the top chamber, using the handles/cupholder as an indicator for the correct position. Once the liner is in place, inflate the top chamber fully.

Fill it with water:

Attach the white hose for filling the pool to the tap. place the other end of the hose through the hose holder built in to the liner. Turn the tap to the desired temperature and fill. Do not fill higher than the fill line. You’re all set up!

Clean-Up Instructions:

Remove Debris:

Use the included debris net to remove any debris from the water.

Empty:

Attach the hose with the orange indicator to the water pump and place it in the water. Place the other end of the hose into the toilet with the lid down (this will help hold it in place). Plug in the water pump and watch the pool empty! Once empty, remove and throw away the liner.

Sanitize:

Place the water pump and hose (coiled up) into the provided bucket. Fill the bucket with water enough to cover the hose, add one cup of the provided disinfectant to the hot water water. Plug in the water pump and let it run for 15 minutes. Empty the water to allow the hose to dry. Use the provided sanitization wipes to wipe down the pool. Deflate and pack away.

Frequently Asked Questions.

  • How Do Rentals Work?

    Get started by reading through and filling out the rental agreement form. I will reach out in 1-2 business days to confirm if there is a pool available for your due date. Once confirmed, an invoice will be sent to your email via Square payment processor. Once you pay, your booking is confirmed and we can choose a delivery/pick-up date!

  • When should I reserve my pool?

    The sooner the better, reservations can fill quickly! I recommend 3 months before your due date. If your due date is coming close, please reach out and I will be happy to see if there’s still any openings.

  • How does delivery work?

    Once your reservation is confirmed, I will schedule a time with you to come drop off your pool. I will walk you through the equipment and answer any questions you may have. If you prefer contactless delivery, please let me know and we can arrange a safe area to place everything.

  • Do I need to buy a hose?

    Your rental includes 2 x 25’ hoses. One for filling and one for emptying the pool. Please make sure the hose will reach from the tap-pool-toilet. If the distance is farther than 25’, you will need to relocate the birthing pool or purchase a longer hose.

  • Why are there 2 hoses?

    One hose is plain white. This hose is meant for clean water / filling your pool only.

    The other hose has orange indicator strips. This hose is for emptying the pool with the used water.

    Having this system allows me to keep costs down for you and reduces waste in our land fills.

  • How long does it take to set it up/take down?

    With the included air and water pumps, set up is a breeze! The pool will inflate in about 15 minutes. It will take approximately 45 minutes to fill (depending on your hot water tank). Emptying the pool will take about 20-30 minutes with the included water pump. Instructions are listed below!
