Questions about this product
How many balloons will a cylinder fill?
It depends on balloon size. As a rule of thumb an 11" latex balloon uses about 14 litres of gas, so a 3L cylinder (around 0.3 m³) fills roughly 20 to 25 of them. Tell us your balloon count and we will size the cylinder for you.
Can I collect from Lisburn?
Yes. Collection from our Lisburn premises is the usual arrangement for cylinders. Ask about delivery for larger sizes.
