Rental Cost – are rental rates hourly?
I start at $300 for the first hour. For kids parties I charge $135 for each additional hour. For adult (over age 16) parties, I start at $550 for the first two hours and then about $200 more per each additional hour.
How is rate determined?
You charge differently in different markets. Adults pay more because there is more work, more labor, and more solution used. I will send it out without an attendant with 1 gallon of solution for $249 in central Texas when I am not busy for a 24 hour rental.
How much solution is used in one hour?
about 1/2 gallon- it depends on many factors such as type of water, humidity
Can I make my own solution?
You may try to make your own solution. We stand behind our machine and our solution. I have had zero issues with eyes, skin, clothing, and respiratory systems in 8 years of using my foam solution.
Is clean up easy?
Clean up outside is simply packing up and going away. It’s water. It gets the ground a bit muddy but that’s it. Inside there is 75-100 gallons of water to deal with per hour of constant use.
How long is the life of the machine?
The New Deal Machine will last 4 years +. The Bubble Blaster 3000 should last even longer. The El Jefe even longer because I recommend not moving it around. The parts that wear out and break are very simple to replace for very little money.
Would I have technical support?
We answer the phone all day everyday except Sundays and holidays.
Whats the difference between the new deal and the foam blower?
The New Deal and the Bubble Blaster 3000 are about the same in output. The BB 3000 is much prettier. The New Deal is light and easier to move around.
How is the foam solution sold?
5 gallon containers, 1 gallon jugs, and 1 quart bottles
What size pit is most popular? I like the 20 foot one
Does the temperature affect the foam?
Yes, it does not work well at all in less than 70º F or 21º C
How long can the machine work?
all day long
Does rentals come with an operator?
They don’t have to have an operator. I recommend it. That’s why I charge how I do.
Must the pit a bottom?
I do not recommend using the bottom outside. Inside, simply velcro it in.
Can I hold a foam party in a club not design for this?
Yes, as long as you prepare your area properly and cover electrical outlets and drain the water carefully it should work inside.
Would hours of party create lots of settled water?
Yes, 75-100 gallons of water per hour come out of the machine. How to drain? Use an extra submersible water pump and a long hose to drain the water out the door as the party progresses.
