How long do mylar balloons stay firmly inflated?

by Marc
(Modesto, Ca)




Can a mylar balloon stay firmly inflated for years, or is its life much shorter? THIS APPEARS TO BE A NON- HELIUM BALLOON.
Thanks,
Marc

I have a 19 year old air filled mylar balloon which is in exactly the same perfect state as it was in 1992 when I got it when I was just 6 years old!

Hi Marc,

I have heard of cases where a helium filled mylar balloon stayed up for more than 2 months: http://bastone.org/blog/?p=288.

So an air filled foil balloon will definitely stay inflated for longer.

But whether they would stay firmly inflated for years, I can't tell you. I doubt it though, as they will lose some air through the opening where you inflate them.

Hope that helps,
Margit
