Slide Hose Attachments

Our collection of slides with water features allows you to add a splash of fun to your regular slide, creating a water play experience that’s both cooling and exciting for kids of all ages. We offer a variety of slides in different sizes and colours to choose from, which are also compatible with a range of Lifespan Kids playgrounds, cubby houses or swing sets.

Why Add a Hose Attachment to Your Slide?

Adding a hose attachment for slide turns an ordinary slide into an exciting water play slide attachment! Here are some of the benefits:

• Cooling Fun: Nothing beats the heat like splashing water on a warm day. The water flow adds an extra element of excitement and refreshment to your child's playtime.
• Physical Activity: Kids get a fun way to stay active while playing in the water. Sliding down while being sprayed with water encourages both active movement and sensory play.
• Extended Play Time: The water feature makes the slide even more appealing, keeping kids entertained for longer, especially on warm days.

Safety Features

Here’s what to look for in kids’ water slides:

• Anti-Slip Surfaces: The slide should feature a textured or non-slip surface to ensure your child can slide down safely without slipping.
• Non-Toxic Materials: The slide should use materials that have passed Australian regulations that ensure non-toxic and non-flammable components have been used.
• Gentle Water Flow: A slide water hose attachment with a gentle, controlled water flow ensures that kids can enjoy the slide without the water causing unnecessary force or injury.
• Sturdy Construction: Look for slides made of durable, UV-resistant plastic to withstand the elements and ensure long-lasting play.

How to Attach the Hose

Setting up a slide with hose attachment is simple and quick:

• Drill a 4mm hole into the side to create a plug
• Attach your garden hose to the plug. Check the hose connection size before fitting it on.
• Once the hose is attached, turn on the water at a low pressure. The water will begin flowing over the slide, creating a fun, wet surface for sliding.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean After Use: Make sure to rinse the slide thoroughly after each use to remove any dirt or debris.
• Dry the Slide: After water play, let the slide dry completely to prevent mould or mildew growth.
• Store in a Dry Place: If possible, store the slide in a dry location when not in use, especially during the off-season, to extend its life.
