FAQs

Can these balloons be filled with helium?

No, these balloons are strictly for air inflation only and are not suitable for helium. They will not float if filled with helium.

What is included in the pack?

The pack includes 2 golden foil number balloons (shaped as '7' and '0'), one straw for inflating, and 2 meters of ribbon for hanging.

How big are the balloons?

Each balloon is approximately 35cm in height when inflated.

How do I inflate the balloons?

You can inflate the balloons using the provided straw. Insert the straw into the valve and blow air into the balloon until it is firm.

Can I reuse these balloons?

These foil balloons are generally intended for single use. While they might be deflated and stored, re-inflation can be difficult and they may not hold air as well.

What is the best way to display them?

You can use the included ribbon to hang them on walls, doorways, or across a room. Alternatively, they can be taped to surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Balloon not inflating

Ensure the straw is fully inserted into the inflation valve. Check the valve for any obstructions. Blow steadily and firmly.

Balloon deflating quickly

Check that the inflation valve is properly sealed after removing the straw. Inspect the balloon for any small punctures or tears. Keep away from heat sources.

Ribbon attachment issues

If balloons have integrated eyelets, thread the ribbon through them. If not, tie the ribbon securely around the base of each balloon, ensuring it doesn't pinch the valve.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Locate the inflation valve on each balloon.
  2. Insert the provided straw firmly into the valve.
  3. Blow air steadily through the straw until the balloon is firm but not overinflated. Avoid using an air pump unless specifically designed for low-pressure foil balloons.
  4. Once inflated, remove the straw and ensure the valve seals itself.
  5. Use the provided ribbon to tie to the balloons for hanging or display.

Compatibility:

  • Inflation: Air only. These balloons are specifically designed *not* to hold helium and will not float if filled with it.

Care:

  • Store uninflated balloons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects.
  • Once inflated, keep away from heat sources, open flames, and sharp objects to prevent deflation or damage.
  • These balloons are intended for single use and are not designed to be re-inflated multiple times.
