FAQs
Does this balloon come with a string?
No, you will need to provide your own ribbon or fishing line to connect the balloons.
Can I reuse this balloon?
Yes, if inflated with air, you can insert a straw into the valve to let the air out gently for storage.
Is helium required?
Helium is only required if you want the balloon to float. Air is sufficient if you plan to hang the balloon.
What is the best way to hang these?
Use the integrated holes at the top and bottom with ribbon, or use adhesive glue dots on the back to attach them to a wall.
Will this balloon work outdoors?
Yes, but be aware that extreme heat may cause the air inside to expand, potentially causing the balloon to pop.
Troubleshooting
Balloon is not floating
14-inch foil balloons have a smaller volume and may not have enough lift for helium; check if the balloon is fully sealed at the valve.
Difficulty inflating
Ensure the straw or pump nozzle is inserted past the internal safety seal inside the inflation valve.
Balloon losing shape
Check the seal at the valve to ensure it is pressed shut, and ensure there are no small punctures from handling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your gold balloon, first locate the inflation valve at the base. If using an air pump, insert the nozzle carefully and fill until the balloon is firm but not overly tight. If you wish for the balloon to float, helium must be used; however, note that 14-inch foil balloons may have limited float time compared to larger latex versions. To create a banner, use clear monofilament or ribbon to thread through the integrated holes. Always store unused balloons in a cool, dry place to prevent premature degradation of the foil. Avoid using sharp objects when hanging the balloons to ensure they do not puncture.
