Thanks ! You are a life saver. I battled with inflating a foil balloon and did not want to add helium. I thought the air was not possible

Hi Celina. You're very welcome. I'm so glad this helped. Take care ☺️

I have no experience with foil balloons, but I bought one for my wife's birthday. It's a Betallic, and it comes with no instructions. So I went to their website -- no instructions there either. So your video saved me! Thank you so much for taking the time to create and post it!!

Yes, happy to. I've just added a link for you in the description of this video which will take you to the exact hand pump I use and highly recommend. Take care, Melanie

A great video! How long would these usually last when inflated this way?

Hi Emma. Thank you. Balloons inflated with air last considerably longer than helium-filled balloons. I've had displays last weeks, but it very much depends how they are kept. If it's very cold, the balloons will appear to deflate.

Do you have to seal the balloon so the air doesn’t escape

@BalloonArtworks

Foil balloons of this type and size have a self-sealing valve, so you don't need to seal the balloon. It's usually the very small foil balloons that don't have a valve and therefore require sealing.

hi! is it possible to inflate using a hand pump that has a needle head?

@BalloonArtworks

Sorry, I haven't used that type of hand pump but I would think you'd need to attach an appropriate nozzle to the needle head.

I have a really really daft question. I need to inflate some 18inch foil balloons. If I fill them with air, add a ribbon and weight, will they float? I know its a stupid question.

@BalloonArtworks

It's not a daft at all. No, they won't float. You end to fill them with helium for them to float.

I prefer to use air as there's so much more scope for creativity. You can easily put an air-filled balloon onto a base to give it height, then add more balloons, bows or flowers etc for added interest. I've got several videos on my channel showing how you can do this. Here's a video of how to put a foil balloon on a base - hope it helps: kzread.info/dash/bejne/o6d_ubWEms27YMY.htmlsi=jZIs97keKeVtS2m-

Excuse me, I'm not a native speaker of English, but I want to confirm the question about the valve, may I ask if the balloon seems to be sealed at valve, then "Poking a membrane with a straw to make the valve" or "There was a hole already, we just found it with straws", which one is correct?(or any other possibilities and how to deal them? I REALLY don't want to pop my limited edition of balloon, please~)

In most cases you should be able to insert your balloon hand pump and start to inflate. However, the valve on some balloons can appear to be sealed and you have to carefully open the valve using something like a straw. I had this same problem at the beginning of this video (link below) which may help you. I use a special tool which I find useful but a straw would work well. Watch the beginning of this video - I hope it helps: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZmWdmKt-cpDZZNo.html

It depends - some electric inflators can damage the valve. I'd give it a try to see what happens.

Hi Ivette. When a balloon is filled with air it does not float as the balloon is too heavy to float. You can make some displays with air-filled balloons. Take care, Melanie ☺️
