FAQs
How many balloons are in a bag?
Each bag contains 100 balloons.
Can these balloons be used outdoors?
Yes, but outdoor use, especially in wind or direct sunlight, can reduce their lifespan and float time.
Are these balloons safe for children?
Latex balloons are a choking hazard for young children. Always supervise children when they are around balloons, and promptly discard any broken pieces.
How long will the balloons float with helium?
Float time varies depending on conditions, but typically 8-12 hours indoors. Factors like temperature, humidity, and altitude can affect this.
Are the balloons environmentally friendly?
Yes, the balloons are made from biodegradable latex material.
What size are the balloons when inflated?
The balloons are designed to be inflated to approximately 12 inches (30 cm) in diameter.
Troubleshooting
Balloon deflates quickly when filled with helium.
Ensure the knot is tied securely. Check for any small punctures. Store balloons in a cool environment before inflation, as temperature fluctuations affect helium float time.
Balloon bursts during inflation.
Avoid over-inflating. Stretch the balloon gently before filling. Ensure the inflation nozzle is not sharp or damaged.
Color appears dull or faded.
Balloons may have been exposed to prolonged sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensure proper storage and inflation environment for optimal color vibrancy.
