step #5 adjusting the jar

We chose a hookah, we examined the body and the pipe and now we will review the issue of the jar. here are the steps to select and test a good jar :

1. Test Match - almost all waterpipes are taped in order to fit the jar perfectly to the hookah, but not always! Jars can fit excellent to your hookah, without unnecessary tapes, the matter of duct tape is not that critical, but still, you paid money for a new hookah, then ask if there is a better jar.Look at the bottom end of the hookah and check the area in the jar, if the barrel is too short you'll have less room for smoke, if you want to enjoy the smoke thick and tasty, near the bottom of the jars is more recommended

2. Another test is the stability of the jar, check and examine that the jar firmly seated on the ground, there are vases that were damaged in their production stage and has a  slightly curved tube, causing the hookah and the jar to sway a little, check it well.

3. Select a shape - there are various jars, you should choose a wide bottom and narrow at the top, so you will enjoy smoking more thicker smoke, think less about the beauty but more on quality and efficiency, in my opinion

4. ** Screw pitcher - think carefully before you choose to take a water pipe with a screw cap jar, because our jars sometimes broken, and it's very difficult to find a suitable jar later, which makes you to buy an entire new hookah

5. Color - It is advisable to select appropriate colored hookah vase to the head and/or the hose, there are also black jars or very dark ones which are not recommended, since it is hard to see where the water comes.

don't forget to comment, thanks.

step # 4 Hookah pipe integrity

We chose a hookah, examined the body and now it's left to choose and test pipe (hose) fitting.

Check connections - pipe three main parts that require examination: the connection with the hookah, the fairy we smoked through and the covered partsof the pipe, the hose.Check that the pipe is connected properly and not loose, check the fitness  for both hookah pipe and tube and another rubber band will be asked for spare, just in case.

Nozzle of the hose connected to a hookah sometimes comes loose, ask to strengthen it or choose another tube, checking the decorations that adorn it are not worn, check to see if she hooked up with a rubber band or tape? And whether the connection is correct?the smoking fairy, check that the nozzle is not clogged, crooked, loose, excessively dirty, well reinforced and not worn. Check the pipe decorations are not loose and worn.

Tightness test tube -  approached the tube into your ear and blew the second nozzle, check the outgoing air is strong, the same test on the other.cover 1 fairy and blew a second mouthpiece, check that air flight (Noise in the tube indicates the escape), then checked again the second mouthpiece. During these tests, "play" a little with the hose (turn and bend it slightly), and investigated whether there is  escape of air.  

step # 3 checking the hookah's body normality

We have chosen our hookah, we have chosen and we conducted a head right, now we must examine the body of the hookah, this is the most important hookah part, try to buy a body by itself and you'll see that the price is almost the same as if you buy a new hookah.Hookah body integrity

1. Visual examination - look at the body from top to bottom, and try to discern whether there are cracks or breaks in the body? Is it curve? is there unnecessary welding parts / corrections  ? Is there a different screwed metal parts ? (Sometimesthe shopkeepers 'improvise' hookahs).

2. Disassembly and assembly - screwed hookah has it advantages and disadvantages and we'll talk about it later, unscrew the different parts : the bowl grommet, the ashtray, the base grommet.
after you unscrewed it, reassemble the parts and check if everything is made ​​up correctly, if the opacity of the hookah correctly, if the different holes are covered entirely (seals and easily released), if the pieces fit and not "improvised".

3. Tightness test - after all the complex parts properly, put the hookah jar (base), seal the bowl grommet, breathe out (check if the ball is released easily) and breathe in (Check that no air is released from any part of it - if there is no noise so it's a good sign).
