Safety measures that should be taken before launching a hot air balloon filled with helium from the roof of a factory include inspecting the burners, fuel system, and envelope for any possible defects or faults; ensuring all burners are operating at their proper temperature and altitude; verifying the capacity and pressure of the helium tank along with all other safety equipment; obtaining necessary permissions from city officials as well as people who will be near the rooftop launch site; providing appropriate risk warnings for potential guests to read before boarding the balloon; wearing appropriate protective gear when handling any hot air balloon equipment such as gloves and long cloth aprons; keeping in mind wind direction while setting up anchors at several locations around the property to control the descent of inflated balloon afterwards; testing all communication devices like handheld microphones, intercoms, two-way radios, etc. after set-up.

Before launching a hot air balloon filled with helium from your factory's roof, there are a few safety measures you should take. To ensure the safety of yourself and your guests, you should consult with an experienced balloon pilot beforehand to ensure the proper assembly of the balloon and to understand any special precautions needed. You also need to consider any local regulations when purchasing or flying the balloon and make sure it is appropriately certified. Additionally, make sure that all spectators are at least 20 feet away from the launch site and have no obstructions in their view of the balloon's lift off.
