This helium cylinder, which can hold up to 50 balloons, is suitable for filling both latex and foil balloons . A valve included in the delivery makes filling child's play – you'll find detailed instructions on the box. The average flight time of a latex balloon is around 6-7 hours in good weather. Foil balloons can even last up to a week in moderate temperatures. However, the ambient temperature, balloon quality, and balloon size can influence this information. Our tip : You can significantly extend the floating time with HiFloat gel. Avoiding overfilling also keeps them floating longer and also increases their range. Disposal : You can usually dispose of the cylinder after your event in the yellow bag or, of course, at your municipal waste and recycling center. Please ensure that the cylinder is completely empty and the valve is unscrewed. You can also label it "EMPTY." Note : Please refer to our Helium Guide before filling the balloons. The color of the helium cylinder may vary from the color shown. However, this does not affect the quality.
