NJE03 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I ordered a pharoah 1 hose from Hookah-Shisha and today I recieve a 4 hose instead. This one does not have purge valve and my question is whether I need one or what? In my posistion would you go ahead and keep the 4 hose model?

shisha fan Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 if it doesn`t have auto-seal ports i would send it back. a purge valve isn`t neccesary but it does come in handy when you want to clear the stale smoke or after the bowl has burned.

Hookah_Bob3 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Personally, I'd send it back for honesty's sake, HOWEVER, it's not required by law to do so, so you can just plug the other 3 when you aren't using them if you'd prefer to keep it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjdx88 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 (edited) I'd send it back, you might get some freebes for it.Just my 2 cents.I just got my 2 hose Pharoah, did they send you some ball bearing with this?Mike Edited March 20, 2008 by mjdx88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromecarz00 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Check if it has auto-seal. If it does, purging is not possible, send it back if you want a purge.either way, call them let them know, they will probably maybe let you keep it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likespaceships Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 call them up and let them know of the mistake.they might just let you keep everything and send you a purge valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE03 Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 (edited) Turns out I shall simply keep what I got. Edited March 21, 2008 by NJE03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely it was sent out with little black plugs to block off the other hose ports when not in use. This allows you to convert the hookah back down to a 3,2, or 1 hose hookah. When you need to purge the base, you would just remove one of the plugs... It wont be as convenient as simply blowing into the hose and letting the one way valve open and close, but it works the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paiintballa182 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 personally, I would send it back as I am not a fan of multiple hose hookahs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkyfisherman Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 ok keep the hoses... sell the hookah, then buy another one hose hookah so that way you have 4 extra hoses for when one goes bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it that you are not fan? (just curious)Reason being that for multiple hoses people compete for airflow; and usually when you take hits, you have to take it one at a time; why not just pass the hose?but if youre keeping it, sell it, keep the hoses, buy another. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paiintballa182 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I'm actually not completely sure why I don't like multiple hoses as much, I think it has something to do with the impersonality of not having to pass the hose and direct interaction with whoever I'm smoking with .And the don't make KM's in more than 1 hose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
