Getting the most out of your balloons
We recommend inflating your helium balloons one to two hours before your event for best results.
The float time for latex balloons is five to seven hours on average, while foil balloons are likely to last noticeably longer. Float time can vary significantly based on the level of inflation, size of your balloon and external factors such as temperature and altitude.
Ideally, keeping your balloons in a cooler environment will help prolong float time as helium balloons float longer in colder temperatures. It is normal that balloons filled in a warm environment, such as our stores, will appear to go soft when taken outside. Once brought back indoors, the helium will warm up and re-expand to make the balloon look full again.
