How to Use Splash Pad Activators

Fox Creek Splash Pad has four sensors or "activators" located around the edges of the splash pad floor. The activators will respond to either a foot or hand. All four sensors do the same thing—turn the entire system on. Each time an activator is triggers, the system runs for four minutes before needing to be reactivated. Once activated, 80 percent of the splash pad features turn on at once. The splash pad rotates which 80 percent is running every 15 seconds. If a favorite feature does not come on when you press an activator, wait a few moments. It should come on soon!
