can you use compressed air to inflate the pool?

Yes, that's how I blow it up. You need a rubber air tip to get it to seal on the stem of the pool but it's easy to do using an old inner tube stem or something similar. If you have an air blow tip, then a piecve or rubber hose on it will do too.

Yes, just don't over inflate. You will probably need some adapters. Hope your compressor is stronger than mine. It took forever, then the baby was afraid of the tail!

I used an air mattress pump to fill it. The main part of the whale has the round ~1" size opening to fill but the tail has a smaller beach-ball type nozzle, so I needed the pump adapter to fill that part.

Yes, with a hand pump. It's very easy to use and has additional attachments to inflate pool toys as well.

Yes, i use an electric air pump that I use to fill anyhting from air matress, boating tubes and pool floats

Yes you need a source of compressed air. Uses, if I recall from college, Bernoulli's principal by creating low pressure from high speed air flow.

Doubt it. The fittings used to fill your inflatables have holes drilled into them intentionally to make sure you don't over fill things. Plus I bet the gearing in the compressor is designed for high speed filling not high pressure.

No pump, I used my home compressor. You can use an inexpensive foot pump. Fyi have 2 of these floats in my pool love them.

Absolutely ... and quickly. I blew up all of my pool toys in about 15 minutes. (Although I've also seen that for larger items ... a huge pool, maybe? ... a shop vac also works.) But this is the best inflator I've found. The battery operated version didn't feel like it had much oomph ... though it still is better than using my lungs.

I used an air pump. Never saw where it said otherwise. Took a matter if seconds to inflate.

No... You need a super air compressor to reach the pressure to fill fill these things.. I already looked into it... They start in the thousands of dollars... :( paintball fields invest in them though...

No... It is not powerful enough, it is really for inflatable pool side toys which is what I got it to do for inflate and deflate each

Yes. Once you set up camp just unscrew the the valve and let it inflate. You may have to blow in it a little if you like it firm.

dedicated air pumps for mattresses and blow up pools such as this one usually comes with adapters. Perhaps try something like this (I can't guarantee it will work but only ones I found)? Custom Accessories 59016 Inflator Adapter (3-Piece Set)

Yes, you really should use a pump. It takes a lot of air and certainly possible to blow it up with breath. Once inflated you can adjust pressure as temp changes using breath.

Regular compressed air will not have enough pressure to operate this gun. The gun will only operate with CO2 or HPA (HPA = scuba or paint ball compressed air) 700 + lbs per square inch.

You will need to get an electrical pump to inflate it. Overall, was NOT really pleased with this product. Seems the walls of the float are really thin, and tend to break open very easily. My float only lasted one season.

If you have already "pulled the plug" on the air valve, use a compressor with a long attachment to insert into the air valve. It will inflate within seconds.

no, this tank if for CO2 only. You will have to buy a tank separately if you want to use compressed air.
