Maintenance is key

Weather protection: Protect the trampoline from the elements by placing it in a covered area or using a protective cover when it is not in use. This will help prevent rust and deterioration caused by prolonged exposure to the sun, rain, and snow.

Spring maintenance: Regularly inspect the springs to ensure they are in good condition and properly tightened. If you find any damaged or loose spring, replace it immediately to prevent accidents.

Limit use: Avoid overloading the trampoline with too many people or sudden jumps that could put additional strain on the jumping mat and springs. Establish appropriate usage rules to ensure the safety of your entire family.
