Proper maintenance prevents microscopic dust buildup in table air holes and preserves frictionless puck glide. Here are the must-have accessories every game room owner should keep on hand.
Tabletop Surface Cleaning & Silicone Maintenance
Never use petroleum-based lubricants or abrasive wax on an air hockey playfield. Our technicians explain how non-greasy food-grade silicone spray and regular microfiber wipe-downs ensure years of high-speed performance.
Protective Fitted Table Covers and Storage
An uncovered air hockey table acts like an open dust collector when idle. Airborne pet dander, lint, and household dust settle into the thousands of tiny air jets, slowly clogging the plenum. A tailored, water-resistant vinyl cover protects the playfield from spills, UV fading, and dust accumulation.
Routine Checklist to Keep Airflow at Peak Performance
Every two weeks, turn on the blower motor and use a soft-bristle brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner to clear out dislodged debris from the air holes. Follow with a light misting of silicone spray buffed with clean microfiber to maintain frictionless puck flight.
