Noob Question.. How To Purge A 2hose


Recommended Posts

Take one hose out, and purge through the other hose. The smoke should exit the empty valve.

If not, take one valve off entirely and purge through the remaining hose.

Replace second valve/hose, smoke and enjoy.

If they are auto-seal, just take the ball-bearing out (it's held down by a screw in Mya Auto-Seal valves) of the valve you are using. That way, the other valve stays sealed while smoking, but not when purging. When using my Mya Vortex solo, I use a standard valve with the hose I am using, and the rest have auto-seal valves in them. No problems so far, minus the fact that Myas don't purge so well.

+1 I can't really think of anything else to add. But, you might also wanna look around for a purge valve that would fit on your hookah, that way you can interchange between a one hose hookah or a multiple hose hookah.

if its not auto seal then just tell hyour friend to move his finger and purge it that way. if they are auto seal then remove a bb out of one if nyou can then you can purge it that way, just have the guy without the seal keep his finger over it while the other is smoking.

It depends on the hookah. Some hookahs have ball bearings in each hose port. If it does, it is simple. All you do is blow into the hose and ball bearing will lift on your hose and release the smoke. I've seen a lot of hookahs that are not made well. In some cases you must plug the hoses, hose ports or disassemble the stem from the vase.
