How to choose Floating Mat

The main material of Floating Mat is XPE foam with center tear-stop waffle weave texture layer.
There are various sizes for your choice to be used in different bodies of water and satisfy different needs. Please choose suitable item of Floating Mat according to your situation.
It is designed for use in open bodies of water, and NOT for use in swimming pools. If you desire to use a floating mat in a swimming pool, or other small body of water, please consider purchasing our smaller floating mats.

How to use Floating Mat

Before you unroll your Floating Mat into the water, be sure to choose a location with sufficiently deep water and clear of obstructions (both above and below the surface of the water). Position your Floating Mat at a safe distance from any objects, including but not limited to boats, piers, docks, rocks, etc. Do NOT place your floating mat in locations frequented by boats. After you unroll your floating mat, secure it with the elastic string to prevent it from drifting.
Once you are finished with your floating mat for the day, remove it from the water and roll it up, and then secure the mat with the provided strap or the elastic string.

How to install the Elastic String

One end of the elastic string goes through the circular hole on one side of your Floating Mat, and then in turn through the small hole and the big hole of the bead. Tie a knot so that the string cannot slide out. The snap hook on the other end of the string can be tied on hooks, anchors, cleats, bow eyes, mooring rings, and other facilities.

Care and Maintenance of your Floating Mat

Your Floating Mat requires little maintenance, but to ensure your Floating Mat endures many summers, please follow the following care guidelines:

  • Protect the floating mat from damage of surface snags, scuffs, and tears from sharp objects, including metal objects, nails, claws, swim suit ornamentation, jewelry, other water toys, etc.
  • Don’t tow the mat on rough ground to prevent damage to the mat surface caused by sharp stone particles.
  • Use clean water and a sponge to remove dirt or other debris on the Floating Mat.
  • Use a mild detergent soap and water to remove the stain on the Floating Mat. Be sure to remove all soap from the mat before storage.
  • At the end of the season, remove your Floating Mat from the water, remove any debris, rinse with clean water, wipe it down with a sponge to remove any grime that may have developed over the season and roll it up. Allow the mat to dry completely before storage.
  • To prolong the life and prevent the fading of your Floating Mat, it should be stored in a place without direct sunlight when not in use for a long time.

Important Safety Guidelines

Before use, everyone using this mat should read and understand the following guidelines:

  • Position your Floating Mat at a safe distance from any objects, including but not limited to boats, piers, docks, rocks, etc.
  • The bearing weight of your Floating Mat is as previously described. However, the placement and location of the mat may dictate a lesser amount. Common sense should be used on the number of persons allowed on the mat at any given time.
  • The floating Mat is designed for recreational purpose only. It can also be used as auxiliary equipment for rescue, but cannot be used as personal life saving device in emergencies.
  • The use of a Soft Life Vest or Swim/Ski Belt is highly recommended while using the Floating Mat, especially for poor swimmers.
