How to Fix Your Chillbo Shwaggins or Chillbo Lazybone Inflatable LoungerUpdated 4 months ago

At Chillbo, we strive to provide durable and reliable loungers for your outdoor adventures. However, we understand that occasional issues like slow leaks or deflation can arise. If your lounger isn’t staying inflated, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered! Follow these steps to troubleshoot and resolve common problems with your Chillbo Shwaggins or Chillbo Lazybone.

1. Testing for Leaks or Holes

If your lounger isn’t staying inflated, the first step is to check for leaks:

• Visual Inspection: Examine the surface and seams of your lounger for any visible tears, gaps, or punctures.
• Soapy Water Test: Inflate the lounger fully, mix a solution of soap and water, and lightly spray or apply it over the seams and surface. Watch for bubbles forming, as this indicates escaping air.

2. Fixing Leaks and Patching Holes

If you locate a leak, follow these steps to repair it:

• Clean the Area: Thoroughly clean and dry the area around the leak.

Apply the Patch:

• Use the provided patch kit to seal the hole or tear.
• Ensure the patch is large enough to overlap the damaged area.
• Press the patch firmly onto the lounger and ensure it adheres properly.
• Allow it to set for the recommended time before using the lounger again.

Alternative Repair Materials: If you don’t have the patch kit, you can use Tear-Aid Fabric Repair (Type A), Gear Aid Tenacious Tape, or a high-strength urethane-based adhesive like Seam Grip.

Tip for Seams: If the leak is at a seam, you can reinforce it by applying a patch that slightly overlaps the seam for extra durability.

3. Checking the Buckle for Proper Inflation

Sometimes, deflation might be due to the lounger not being properly secured:

• Secure the Buckle: Ensure the buckle is tightly fastened after inflating the lounger. A loose or improperly secured buckle can allow air to escape.
• Roll It Tight: Roll the lounger tightly before fastening the buckle to maintain optimal air pressure.

4. Contacting Customer Support

If you’ve thoroughly inspected for leaks, patched any holes, and ensured the buckle is secure but the lounger still isn’t staying inflated, it might be time to contact Chillbo’s customer service team.

Additional Tips for Longevity

Regularly inspect your lounger for wear and tear, especially after heavy use or exposure to sharp objects.

Store your lounger in a dry, cool place to prevent material degradation.
