The water takes away approximately 90% of the harmful chemicals (excluding THC), and so a pipe contains merely 0.5% nicotine and 0% tar. Also, if its not inhaled, there is little danger of lung cancer.3) I'm new to hookah smoking, how easy is it to get started?Getting started is actually very simple. If youre new to hookah pipe you may want to purchase a starter kit so you can get going without looking for all the bits and pieces you need. See our hookah help section on how to set up and use your hookah.4) What size hookah should I consider?Any size is suitable for smoking. The taller the pipe the longer the smoke has time to cool and mix with air. An average size pipe Is about 75 cm to the top of the clay bowl. If you usually smoke with friends you can purchase a large multi hose hookah so you dont have to wait several minutes to get your go.5) How often should I clean my hookah?For best results the pipe should be cleaned each smoking session. If you use several bowls of tobacco in one sitting you may wish to change the water in the bottle when swapping flavours. Clean the pipe (stem) with a soft hookah cleaning brush and very carefully funnel clear hot water through the hose. If you use a chemical based cleaning fluid up fluid ensure you have flushed it out thoroughly with water.6) How long does the flavoured tobacco/molasses last?Shisha is a special blend of fresh tobacco leaves, fruit pulp, and molasses or honey. When kept fresh, the tobacco can last for up to a year. See the packaging for a use by date.7) How long will one hookah bowl of shisha last?Each bowl lasts approximately forty-five minutes to an hour.8) How long will one charcoal last?Each charcoal lasts approximately 20-30 minutes.9) How many bowls in each pack of shisha?In a 50g pack there are approximately four to six bowls.In a 250g pack there are approximately twenty to thirty bowls.In a 500g Carton there are ten individual 50g packs, approximately forty to sixty bowls.10) My hookah doesn't seem to be smoking right. What do I do?1. Check your bowl. The most gemon mistake is packing the shisha too tightly. Make sure that you break the shisha apart and lightly sprinkle it into the bowl to the top. Don't fill it past the top because you'll be packing the shisha when you cover it with a metal screen or foil.2. Check your charcoal. If the charcoal is covered with ash, there may not be enough heat getting to the shisha. Use your tongs to tap the charcoal ash off into your hookah tray and place the red charcoal back on your head.3. Check your gaskets. Make sure that all of the geponents of the hookah are fitting nicely together. A snug fit will make the smoke flow more efficiently. You may check for a burnt gasket. Some hookahs expose the gasket and are easily burnt by charcoal that is moved around in the tray.4 . Check your hoses. If you have multiple hoses, make sure that all ends are plugged properly. For example, if you have two or three hoses on your hookah and there is only one person smoking, you'll need to remove the hoses and use rubber stoppers or tape to block the hose holes.11) What is the difference between smoking hookah tobacco and smoking cigarettes?All major shisha manufacturers have nicotine listed at 0.5% and tar listed at 0.0%. On a pack of Marlboro Full Flavor 100's Filter Soft Pack, there is 16 miligrams of tar and 1.2 miligrams of nicotine (these numbers are listed on the philip moriss website, www.philipmorris.ge). Most cigarettes contain over 2.0% in nicotine. "Among the findings, Marlboro had as much as 9.6 percent freebase nicotine; Camel contained 2.7 percent; Winston had 5 percent to 6.2 percent; and Gauloises Blondes was found to have 5.7 percent to 7.5 percent." ("'Freebase' Nicotine Thought to Make Cigarettes More Addictive" 30 July. 2003. www.nacsonline.ge.(26 August. 2004))Although there is no tar and less nicotine, Hookah smoking is still smoking. Please be aware of the risks of tobacco before choosing to smoke.
