FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - HOSE FAQs

Question:

What kind of hookah hose should I use?

Answer:

The best hookah hose is one that produces the best air tight fit once the hose is inserted into hookah pipe, is resistant to tearing, and is flexible. Plastic tube hoses are ideal because the tube is hard and are pretty flexible.

Question:

How long should the hookah hose be? Answer:

Hookah hoses come in all lengths. Hookah Masters likes four foot hoses because they provide enough distance away from the hookah to smoke from, allows ample inhalations, and is not too long to interfere and cause an accident.

Question:

Are Cobra hoses better than the rest?

Answer:

No. While Cobra hoses have a nice appearance, a hose that passes our airtight hose test is our hose of choice.

Question:

How much does a hookah hose cost?

Answer:

Hookah hoses can be cheap or expensive. An average hookah hose will probably cost under $10, while the more expensive hookah hoses can run you $30 or more. Hookah hoses are not worth the investment because they get dirty quickly, do not clean very well, and are easy to tear and rip. So long as the hookah hose is air tight, buy the less expensive hookah hose.

Question:

What if the hookah hose gets cracked or breaks?

Answer:
First, you can try to repair it using electric tape or medical tape. Second, you can try to use wax if its a small hole. Third, you can buy a new hose.
Question:
When is it time to buy a new hookah hose?
Answer:
It depends on a few things. First, how much hookah do you smoke? Second, are you inhaling pieces from the hose? Third, do you rinse out the hose after hookah sessions? If you smoke your hookah regularly, basically 1-2 bowls per day, your hose will start to get build up and mesh the tastes of the different tobaccos. Once your start to notice you can't taste the difference of tobacco flavors, you should consider purchasing a new hookah hose. If you rinse your hookah hose, the water residue left inside may cause the hose to crumble inside. Once you start sucking in little pieces of the hookah hose, it definitely time to buy a new hookah hose.
