10 things you wanna know about helium balloon

Helium balloons flies all the time?
When people think of balloon decoration, the first thing come up to their mind would be helium balloon! As a decorator over a decade, I was asked thousand times of same group of questions. Let's talk about it today.

1.Why does it fly?

When balloon blown up, it has volume even it is only gas or air.
When the mass of such volume is much smaller than the mass of the same volume of normal air,
it floats on the air. As you might know that Helium has much less mass than same volume of normal air.
Of course you must include the balloon material, the ribbon all together!

How long does it fly?

For ordinary latex helium balloon blown to diameter 10 inches, it flies about 8 hours.

For the foil helium balloons, it flies 3 days. The bigger one might last couple of weeks.

They just don't fly forever!

Will it explode/on fire?

Balloon filled with Helium will burst just the same way as ordinary air filled balloons!

But Helium is noble gas; it won't burn and explode like Hydrogen. Perfectly safe for decorating balloons.

So you might found that only school lab will use Hydrogen to fill balloons for explosion experiments!

What cause bursting?

Sharp points like needles, ceiling nails, finger nails , cutter and scissors burst balloons easily.

High temperature lighting would burst them too!

Anyway, summer sun unlike burst balloons. Better chance to get burst when the balloon get wet and sun burn the same time!

How to decorate with it?

Since helium balloons float in air, you have to manage NOT in let go!

You may use balloon weight to let them down to earth. Or tie them up in advance.

If the ceiling is out of sharp points, and it is not high so you can grab the ribbons, simply let 

them up against the ceiling for easy handling!

How to clean them up?

Latex balloon is pretty sticky after burst. So don't try to go wild and burst the balloons all around!

It takes you time to collect all around but not simply swipe to clean! Grab the ribbon and burst them right above the trash bin. That saves works!

Does the quality of the balloon matter?

You might want to buy some balloons when you hit it in store!

But not all balloons work fine with helium. Since the mass is much less, it travels through the balloon material much more easy than normal air! Better quality last longer!

Where to buy?

I love Qualatex balloons, you search for them.

Is it safe to let supplier move in the bottle tank and blow on spot?

As a decorator, I believed that experienced decorator definitely having no trouble!

But the tank might looks scary so you may request the balloon blown up before move in!

I have foil balloon filled with helium, can I reuse, how?

Yes. Foil balloons are quite durable. You can plug in a straw to release the gas inside after use.

And go get you balloon decorator next time you wanna refill helium balloons
