Pittsburgh's North Hills and South Hills Are Active New Home Corridors. Get Your Community Noticed.

Our polyurethane helium blimps are visible up to 5 miles away.
Pittsburgh's New Home Market Is Growing. Visibility Is Everything.
— Home Builders Association of Western Pennsylvania / ConsumerAffairs, 2025
A Pittsburgh model home balloon rental from Arizona Balloon Company puts your community above the competition — literally. From Cranberry Township and Mars along I-79 North to Peters Township and Cecil along I-79 South, from Moon Township and Robinson along I-376 West to Murrysville and Monroeville along US-22 East — Pittsburgh's new home market spans multiple counties.
Pittsburgh's rolling terrain means aerial visibility from elevated positions is especially powerful. A polyurethane blimp above your model home can be seen from major highway corridors across the surrounding hills and valleys. For a reliable Pittsburgh model home balloon rental, Arizona Balloon Company has served homebuilders nationwide since 1979 — delivering, setting up, and retrieving so your sales team never touches the logistics.
Why Our Balloons Cost Less and Perform Better
Most rental companies use imported PVC. We manufacture polyurethane in the USA.
Up to 87% Less Helium
~72 cu ft vs. 600+ for comparable PVC. With helium up 135% since 2019, that's real cost savings every weekend you fly in Pittsburgh.
Holds All Weekend
~1% daily helium loss vs. 3%+ for PVC. Looks just as strong Sunday afternoon — when Pittsburgh buyers make their final drive-through decisions.
Built for Western Pennsylvania Climate
Our UV-stabilized polyurethane handles Pittsburgh's climate better than imported PVC — maintaining lift, appearance, and performance all weekend long.
Stable in Allegheny Valley Conditions
Polyurethane is lighter than PVC — more net lift and better stability when the wind picks up across Pittsburgh's new home corridors.
Polyurethane vs. PVC: The Numbers

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a Pittsburgh model home balloon rental cost?
Pricing varies by size, location, and duration. Our polyurethane uses 87% less helium than PVC. Contact us for a specific Pittsburgh quote.
How far in advance do I need to book in Pittsburgh?
We recommend 2–3 business days in advance. For grand opening weekends, book early as peak weekends fill up.
Can you handle recurring rentals for multiple Pittsburgh communities?
Yes. We coordinate multi-community delivery and pickup schedules so your marketing team doesn't manage the logistics.
Do you serve Butler County communities like Cranberry Township and Mars?
Yes. Butler County — including Cranberry Township, Mars, Wexford, and Valencia — is one of our primary service areas in the Pittsburgh metro. We also serve Allegheny, Westmoreland, and Washington counties.
What's the difference between a balloon and a blimp?
A balloon is spherical — visible in all directions. A blimp is elongated — more surface area for builder logos, tracks better in wind. For Pittsburgh's new home corridors, blimps typically outperform balloons.
