Leaving Stem In Base With Water (would That Cause Rust?)


Recommended Posts

Would leaving my hookah setup in water cause rust in the part of the stem that is submerged in the water? I have left it for 5 hours now and plan to leave it till tonight or this evening unless it is bad to do that. Sorry if this seems like a stupid question. Just rather would be safe than sorry. Thanks.

Depends on which hookah really. If they are not made of Stainless Steel or Brass then yes they will rust. Now if you leave it and it has sort of a green rust on it then you can just scrub that off. Green rust is just on the outside and will not eat through the stem itself. I have a Social Smoke stem that I have left in water overnight. Mostly when I smoke late night and dont feel like cleaning it. I have not had any issues.

+1 What scheetz said. Stainless Steel shouldn't rust. As worst, you might get some surface rust if you left in there for a few weeks, but that can be easily wiped off with a paper towel.
