How To Inflate Balloons with Helium Like A Pro? 🎈

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. 🙋🏼‍♀️What size of helium tank do I need for my party?

In this video, we used a 22.7 litre helium tank.

For a 22.7 litre tank, it's enough to inflate either one of the following options:

45-50 pcs - 12 inches balloons
23-26 pcs - 18 inches balloons
5-6 pcs - 36 inches balloons

With this in mind, you can decide which tank size you'll need for your party.

2. 🙋🏽‍♀️How long will my balloon float with helium?

This depends on the weight of the balloon itself and the weight carried by the balloon. For a 36 inch (90cm) giant balloon, with added confetti and tassel garland, it can hold for at least 3 hours.

3. 🙋🏻‍♂️Is it a better idea to rent / buy a tank, or just do it at a local party store like Party City?

It usually costs $15 USD to get someone to inflate a giant balloon at Party City. It is a good deal but you need to that person doesn't mess it up (they sometimes do). Make sure you give them the exact instructions of maximum length you want the balloon to be inflated. Just to be safe, we recommend inflating a 36 Inch balloon to 34 Inch to avoid over-inflating or accidental popping.

Buying a tank varies between $35-59 online, but you will be able to inflate many balloons with it (depending on which model you get). If you're throwing a party and want to fill more than 1 balloon, getting a tank is a better deal.

**Pro Tip: You might want to think about the transportation once you've inflated the balloon with helium. If you're transporting it back home from a party store, make sure you have:

- Enough space inside your car
- There isn't sharp edges inside your car that might pop the balloon (because we don't want your surprise to be ruined!)

4. 🙋🏼‍♀️When should I inflate the balloon?

At most 3 hours before the party starts.

You are incredibly beautiful!! If I might make a suggestion you should pre inflate the balloons a few times with a pump from home in order to make sure that it can be filled to proper capacity when you take it to be filled with helium.

Lovely tutorial. Everytime I put on my tassel tails my balloons come down. Do you know what I’m doing wrong?

THANK YOU ❤️❤️ took me forever to find how to inflate these giant balloons lol

[allisonyoung]

Thanks for the video! What size helium tank is that and how many of those balloons were you able to fill with it. I need about 16 balloons inflated to about 24 inches. I'm wondering if just one of those tanks would be enough.

Hi I tried this technique but the balloon didn't float. I used a Bobo balloon and tassles. I put hi-float on the bobo balloon since confetti was placed in the inside. Wonder what I did wrong
