how big should the air pump be?

The best luck using this was utilizing two separate pumps! One for the air stone and the other for the bubbler

You need at 2 outlet heavy duty pump. I have a 40 gallaon tank and the pump is for 50-75 gallons.

Yes this is too big. And the pump is 100% useless so you will have to spend money on another pump as well. I suggest something else definitely if you want something smaller. I wanted to return this but just have not had the time. I had a smaller one and it was much better.

Not sure how to answer that question. I can tell you that it is large enough to inflate a decent size raft, but I had to return it because it did not come with the hose tip that fit my boat. I would suggest a foot pump with multiple hose tips. It takes much less effort and produces a higher volume of air for larger items.

I use a simple 12V air pump I got a K-mart. just get one with the different input nozzles.

Any pump that you would use to blow up an air mattress, I think should work ok. Not sure on this.

This bounce house does not come with a pump. I used an air compressor--seems the valve is a pretty standard size. You could probably use a foot pump, but you may die of exhaustion before it's filled! Happy pumping!

This pump was designed for tires or sports equipment, which typically only require around 30-50 psi. 1000 psi far too high for a small little pump like this to achieve.

Definitely need a pump. I got one at Academy for 6.99. Also, we had this less than a week and it already is leaking air. Not a great product.

We used an air compressor also. It is a pretty big float for a manual pump but one would work. as said by others, your pump would need a pointed end. This is our second season and just filled a couple days ago. Great for keeping you above water while it's still a little brisk.

You need 7 inches to fit. It is a squeeze at 6 inches. Btw, go on Amazon or local Hdepot and purchase the smallest fountian pump. It will improve performance 100%.

1 foot will do the trick. Anymore more would require major air to bubble. My 40 gallon barrel has a cubic foot in it. With a large air pump dedicated to the barrel alone.. Still have spots where the media bunches up

Your right, having the pump would help!! We got this for our daughter for Christmas and my husband decided to I to the local air pump to blow ours up. I wouldn't recommend it as needless to say he exploded ours by over inflation and she never got to use it!! I would try a bicycle tire pump you can control or ask someone for those regular foot pumps ;)

I used this: PENN PLAX Standard Airline Tubing Air Pump Accessories, 8-Feet and it works fine

I'm 5'10" and 145lbs and 10psi works well for me. It takes me about 5min to fully inflate. The last few pumps are pretty tough for me but I can totally make it work.

It's small in diameter too, like standard air tubing. How are you planning on using it for your project?

Standard size. It's stretches, and stays on the air pump outlet really great.

You should use a tank with it. I hooked mine up to my 35 foot motor home to replace the old 35 pound 42 amp for the air suspension. I have a 12 gallon tank to pump into but you can get by with 1 1/2 or 2 gallon. I also used a relay that turns it on at 85 psi and off at 105 psi. that's the max my suspension is supposed to have. Got to say it is great takes about 4 minutes to fill the tank and all 4 airbags. rides like a dream now.
