4. RIBBON ATTACHMENTS
Ribbon tethers are 8 feet long prior to being tied to balloons. Once attached to the balloon, the remaining length is just over 7 feet long. Unless otherwise requested, the ribbon color is matched to the balloon color. Slight color variations may occur.

5. FLOAT TIMES

Float times noted below apply to indoor use.

Extremely warm rooms (over 75 degrees Farenheit), may cause balloons to pop — turn down the thermostat before we arrive. Latex balloons used outdoors may pop shortly after being exposed to direct sunlight (mylar balloons are a better option). 

LATEX 11-INCH BALLOONS
Without Hi-Float®, 11-inch latex balloons will float for 12-20 hours. We recommend you order balloons with Hi-Float® if your balloons are being delivered early in the day for an evening event — they will remain larger and perkier. If your balloons are being delivered the day prior to the event, you absolutely need to order balloons with Hi-Float®. 

LATEX 16-INCH BALLOONS
Without Hi-Float®, 16-inch latex balloons will float for at least 30 hours. If your balloons are being delivered early in the day for an evening event — you do not need Hi-Float®. If your balloons are being delivered the day prior to the event, you should order the balloons with Hi-Float®.

MYLAR BALLOONS
Mylar balloons will remain full and snappy for at least 3 days and are not made to be used with Hi-Float®. They are the best option if your balloons are to be displayed outdoors in direct sunlight.
