How to Inflate and Reuse the Number 16 Foil Balloon

Each foil balloon comes with a straw. Insert the straw into the inflation port and blow gently until the balloon reaches about 90% of its full size—overinflating can cause leaks. You can also use an air pump for quicker inflation. After the party, deflate the balloon by reinserting the straw and pressing gently on the balloon to release air; avoid pressing too hard to prevent damage. The foil balloon can be saved for future events.

Common Questions About This Party Balloon Set

Can the number 16 balloon be inflated with helium?

The foil balloon is designed for both air and helium support. If using helium, keep in mind that foil balloons typically float longer than latex ones. The latex balloons in this set are also suitable for helium.

How do I attach the balloons to a wall or ceiling?

Use the included ribbon to tie the balloons and attach them to weights or adhesive hooks. For foil balloons, you can also tape the back to a wall without damaging the surface if you use removable tape.

How long will the balloons last?

Foil balloons hold air or helium for several days when properly sealed. Latex balloons will last 12-24 hours with helium, or longer if filled with air. For best results, inflate the balloons on the day of your event.

What should I do if the foil balloon leaks?

If a small leak occurs, you can sometimes patch it with transparent tape. For large leaks, the balloon may need replacement. The foil material is sturdy but avoid sharp objects.
