BALLOON DELIVERIES TO A RESIDENCE

We will contact the hospital prior to delivery to ensure that balloons are permitted for the patient and to ensure that the patient is still a hospital guest. Only mylar balloons are permitted for hospital orders.

Deliveries to hotel guests are made in care of the front desk, bell desk, or concierge. The customer is responsible for ensuring that the hotel completes the delivery.

Cold air, hot air, high humidity, changing barometric pressure, high altitudes, and moving air from fans and vents will reduce balloon float times. The float times posted on our site are the maximum to be expected. Changing conditions mean that on some occasions balloons may float for only one day, and on other occasions the same balloons may float for many days. We guarantee that your balloons will be delivered in perfect condition, but float times will vary.

C. FLOAT TIMES

RECYCLABLE MYLAR BALLOONS (FOIL)
In balloon-friendly environments, mylar (foil) balloons will remain full and taught for 3-5 days. They will continue to float for two weeks or longer. Air-conditioned air may cause these balloons to shrivel, but they will return to a normal state when exposed to warmer air.

BIODEGRADABLE LATEX BALLOONS (RUBBER)
16-inch latex balloons will float indoors for 30-40 hours.

11-inch latex balloons will float indoors for 12-20 hours.

Float times may be reduced by as much as 60% at elevations above 2,500 feet.

HI-FLOAT TREATMENT FOR LATEX BALLOONS
Latex (rubber) balloons, used indoors and out of direct sunlight, will float for 3-5 days if treated with Hi-Float, a non-toxic sealant which coats the inner wall of the balloon.

Note that even with Hi-Float treatment, float times may be reduced by as much as 60% at elevations above 2,500 feet.

D. BALLOON SIZES

The noted dimensions of mylar balloons are their size uninflated, as designated by manufacturers. A mylar balloon with a noted size of 18 inches will be closer to 13 inches once inflated. This discrepancy is not as significant with larger mylar balloons. For example, a 28-inch mylar would typically be 24 inches at the widest point after inflation.

The dimensions of latex balloons is their inflated size. For example, an 11-inch latex balloon has an 11-inch diameter at the widest point.
