FAQs
How long does it take to inflate an air roller for cover deployment?
Air rollers inflate within just a few minutes using a standard backpack leaf blower, allowing rapid deployment.
How many grounds staff are needed to operate air rollers compared with manual cover handling?
Typically around three/four trained operators, significantly reducing manual handling compared with traditional methods.
What's used to inflate the rollers, do we need special equipment?
No specialist equipment is required. Standard commercial backpack leaf blowers are used.
Can air rollers be left assembled pitch-side, or do they need to be stored away?
Yes. Once inflated they can remain around the pitch perimeter ready for use or deflated with covers on to improve space efficiency.
Do air rollers work with our existing covers, or do they need to be a matched system?
They are fully compatible with Sports & Stadia’s MacLeod, Evergreen™ and Frost Cover systems. Compatibility with third-party systems depends on their design.
