How to wash a water pipe after smoking – step by step
To wash a water pipe you need only a few preparations and tools. First of all, it’s worth getting the right jigs – a flexible jig and a body jig will allow you to thoroughly remove all sorts of dirt even from hard-to-reach places. What is important, the type of the excluder should be adjusted to the type of pipe you use in your water pipe. To wash your Hookah you will also need a strong, professional cleaning product, such as Schmand Weg, which not only does not damage the steel, but also additionally removes the smell after various flavors. You can purchase this and many other products by visiting our Hookah store.
- Unscrew the water pipe – this is the first step, which allows you to thoroughly inspect and then clean the dirt.
- Prepare the cleaning agent – the powdered agent should be mixed with warm water in a vase. Remember that the temperature of the water should not be too high: hot water can cause the vase to break.
- Cutter – now is the time to use a flexible cutter. It should be inserted into the vase and thoroughly clean the interior. Thanks to the flexible design of the cutter, you can clean the vase very precisely, as the tip bends under pressure.
- Washing the body – before you proceed to cleaning the body, unscrew the diffuser and then rinse it with lukewarm water. The corpus itself, on the other hand, is cleaned with a corpus cleaner jigsaw soaked in water with a cleaning product. Then rinse the body under running water and leave it to dry. Importantly, if the water pipe is heavily soiled, the whole body should be disassembled into parts and each part should be thoroughly washed.
Important – remember that Hookah aluminum parts cannot be washed with any cleaning chemicals. Using a cleaning agent can damage the outer coating, which will not only affect the aesthetic appearance, but also fade the color.
Every how many sessions should a water pipe be washed?
Hookah is worth washing regularly, but much depends on the frequency of use. After each session it is recommended to rinse the pipe with warm water, while the general washing should depend on the level of dirt on the vase. When you notice a line of dirt in the vase is a sign that it’s time to wash the entire Hookah.
Summary

Above all, it is worth following the manufacturer’s recommendations, as well as following the instructions for the use of specific preparations and tools. This will make every Hookah smoking session a pure pleasure!
