Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

5 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 5 costs, 0 mixed.

Missing labels end use and sale

Beginning January 1, 2026, operators must ensure all manufacturer labels are attached and readable before use. If any label is missing or unreadable, the device’s use must stop permanently and the device must be destroyed. A business may not sell or transfer a device unless all labels are intact and the buyer gets the user manual, updates, and any recall information.

Licenses and $1M insurance for inflatable businesses

Beginning January 1, 2026, any business that makes inflatable devices available in Nevada must hold all required state and local business licenses. The business must keep liability insurance or a surety bond of at least $1,000,000. This is a standing requirement while the business operates.

Safety logs and pre-use inspections required

Beginning January 1, 2026, each inflatable must have a logbook kept with the device at all times. Operators must record inspection results and keep them for at least 2 years, and show the log to customers or agencies on request. An on-site operator must inspect the device and location before use. The operator must not allow use if the inspection finds, or should have found, a hazard. Inspections must follow the manufacturer’s manual, updates, and recall information.

Wind limits, anchoring, and big warning sign

Beginning January 1, 2026, operators must measure wind with an anemometer and record it before use. They must monitor wind during use and stop and deflate if wind exceeds the manufacturer’s limit or 15 mph, whichever is higher. Devices must be anchored before and during use. Use noncorrosive metal stakes at least 18 inches long driven at a 22-degree angle toward the device, or weights of at least 75 pounds per anchor, unless the manufacturer requires more. A red “OPERATOR’S WARNING” sign at least 2 feet by 2 feet with 72-point bold type must be posted in front. The sign must state injury or death risk, logbook availability, the wind limit, that an anemometer and anchoring are required, and that max users follow the manufacturer’s labels.

Cities can set stricter inflatable rules

Beginning January 1, 2026, counties, cities, and towns may pass rules that match or are stricter than the state’s inflatable rules. They may set civil or criminal penalties for violations. They may use parts of business license fees to fund enforcement.
