Why do I have to wait a slide?
According to DIN EN 1069-2, you must have your large water slides (type 3-10) serviced by a specialist company at least once a year. Here, the standard places particular emphasis on, for example:
- Lifespan
- Components inspection
- Inspection intervals and procedures
- Care of materials such as, steel construction, stainless steel and GRP
- Debris removal
A maintenance is not a TÜV acceptance! How does a TÜV test according to DIN EN 1069 take place?
- Test period: Water slides must be tested annually by an independent body such as TÜV. A slip test is required every three years. Operators should additionally perform daily visual inspections and periodic inspections.
- Test object: Inspections focus on damage-prone areas such as slip surfaces, joints, stability and signs of wear. The annual inspection also includes checking the water flow rate to prevent accidents or injuries.
- Inspection record: inspectors document findings, including potential deficiencies and safety concerns. If there are concerns, the slide will be shut down until the operator corrects the deficiencies. A new test decides on the release of the plant.
After our service, you can look forward to the annual safety inspection by TÜV without any worries.
For which types of water slides is the maintenance service recommended?
Whether it is water slides for outdoor or indoor pools, toddler slides, wide wave slides, open or tube slides made of GRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic or polyester) – we can assist you with all of them. This applies, for example, to public swimming pools, water parks and slide parks.
Is a long-term maintenance contract mandatory?
You can also order a single repair. Nevertheless, we recommend annual inspection and maintenance service to ensure the longevity of your system and keep costs low.
