A good electric pump is perfect, at least a hand pump is must needed. When you are purchasing a new inflatable towable tube or water toy, you should ask whether an electric pump or a hand pump is included, or how much pressure is required to keep your inflatable tube nice and firm.

So it's necessary to check your tube pressure at intervals after you head out on the water for a while. If you feel your towable tube a little soft, stop and take a minute to top off with your hand pump.

An under-inflated tube will cause many problems. For example, the air inside will be displaced when you sit on the tube, and you floating tube will be more lower in the water, which puts more stress on the tube, cover, rope and even your boat, the added stress may cause tube material to tear and ropes to stretch. So keeping your inflatable tube fully inflated is not just good for safety and water experience, it's also a good way to protect your inflatables.

5. Pay attention to the hot sun. When you get off the boat for the day, you may plan to take a break under the umbrella and prepare a barbecue. This is a great idea but don't forget to take care your inflatable tube first. The towable tube is highly inflated and may be expanded if you leave it under the hot sun for a period of time.
