FAQs
How many balloons are in this pack?
This pack contains 100 red latex balloons.
What size are the balloons?
The balloons are 12 inches in diameter when fully inflated.
Can I fill these balloons with hydrogen?
It is strongly recommended to only fill these balloons with air or helium. Hydrogen is a flammable gas and should not be used.
Are these balloons suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, but prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh weather conditions may reduce their lifespan and color vibrancy.
How long do the balloons stay inflated?
When filled with air, they can last for several days. When filled with helium, they typically float for 8-12 hours, depending on atmospheric conditions.
Are the balloons safe for children?
Adult supervision is recommended when children are playing with balloons. Uninflated or broken balloons can be a choking hazard.
What does 'biodegradable' mean for these balloons?
Biodegradable means the material will break down naturally over time, reducing environmental impact compared to non-biodegradable materials.
Troubleshooting
Balloon won't inflate fully
Ensure the nozzle is properly inserted and the balloon opening is not obstructed. If using helium, check that the tank has sufficient gas.
Balloon deflates quickly
Check for small leaks around the knot or the balloon material itself. Ensure the knot is tied securely. Extreme temperature changes can also cause faster deflation.
Balloons popping during inflation
Do not overinflate. Stop inflating when the balloon reaches its full, round shape. Keep balloons away from heat sources or sharp objects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Inflation: Balloons can be inflated using a standard balloon pump for air, or a helium tank for floating effects. Avoid overinflating, which can cause balloons to pop. Fill them until they are round and firm but not overly stretched.
Compatibility: Compatible with air and helium. Not recommended for use with gases other than air or helium.
Care: Store unused balloons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent degradation. Keep away from sharp objects. Dispose of deflated balloons responsibly.
