What is Percolator Bong?
A percolator bong, also known as a perc bong, is a type of water pipe that adds a further filtration layer to diffuse smoke through water, resulting in cooler, smoother hits.
Filters are designed with small holes or slits that break the smoke into smaller bubbles, increasing surface area and allowing for better filtration.
There are several different types of percolators, and each has a slightly different effect.
While they may look complicated, hitting a bong with a percolator is more manageable and smoother than puffing on one without a percolator filtering.
If you want more tasty bong rips and less coughing your head off, a perc bong is your best bet for a water pipe.
What does a percolator do in a bong?
When you take a hit, the smoke travels from the bowl and through the downstem into the percolator chamber.
The percolator, designed with various slits, holes, or channels, disperses the smoke into multiple small bubbles. This increases the smoke’s surface area, allowing for better interaction with the water.
As the smoke bubbles rise through the water, impurities and ash get trapped in the water. This filtration process removes unwanted particles, resulting in a cleaner smoke.
The increased surface area of the smaller bubbles allows the water to cool the smoke more efficiently. Cooler smoke is less harsh on the throat and lungs, providing a smoother hit.
After passing through the percolator and water, the filtered and cooled smoke continues up the bong’s neck to the mouthpiece, ready for inhalation.
Benefits of Percolator Bongs
There are numerous advantages of smoking from a bong.
Enhanced Filtration: While traditional bongs only filter and cool smoke through water before you take a hit, percolator bongs have an additional layer of filtration provided by a diffuser.
Cooler Smoke: The percolator breaks the smoke into smaller bubbles, increasing its surface area. As these bubbles pass through the water, the smoke cools down significantly, making it less harsh on your throat and lungs.
Smoother Hits: By filtering out impurities and cooling the smoke, percolators ensure each hit is smoother and more enjoyable.
This makes for a more pleasant smoking experience, especially for those who find regular bong hits still harsh.
Aesthetic Appeal: Many percolators add a visual element to your bong. Watching the smoke pass through the intricate percolator designs can be mesmerizing and enhance the overall experience.
Different Types of percolators
Bong percolators come in various styles, each with its unique way of filtering smoke for a smoother experience.
Here are some of the most popular types of percs that are more well known and commonly used in bongs.
1. Tree Percs
Tree percolators are fairly simple and easily identified .
Within the bong's tube, there's a collection of rods that resemble tree limbs. With a few slits per “limb," there will be plenty of diffusion.
2. Honeycomb Percs
The honeycomb percolator features a flat disc with numerous small holes (like a honeycomb) for diffusion, producing a lot of bubbles for a smoother hit. This type of percolator is known for its efficiency and minimal drag.
3. Showerhead Percs
Showerhead perc bongs have a tube that extends into a larger chamber, dispersing smoke out through slits or holes at the bottom of the chamber, resembling a showerhead.
4. Inline Percs
Essentially horizontal tubes with slits, inline percs are one of the most popular types of percolators.
Since they are usually located near the base of the tube or beaker, inline pers are usually paired with other types of percolators for an even cleaner and cooler smoking experience.
5. Turbine Percs
Also known as a tornado perc, this type creates a spinning effect in the water, giving the smoke a swirling motion.
The added filtration makes the smoke smoother and cooler, and the visual effect is a bonus.
6. Matrix Percs
Essentially, matrix percs are stacked showerhead percs. More holes mean more bubbles and slightly better filtration.
Matrix bongs look cool, and their bubble display is mesmerizing, but these percolators are notoriously difficult to clean.
7. Swiss Percs
Aptly named since it closely resembles a piece of Swiss cheese thanks to the several holes, Swiss Percolators generate circles of bubbles to diffuse and filter smoke.
Factor to Conside When Choosing the Percolator Bong
When picking percolator bongs, go with what suits you best based on what you like and what you need for the most enjoyment and practicality.
1. Size
One crucial factor is the size of the bong, as this affects portability and the intensity of the smoking experience – larger bongs tend to offer cooler, but less intense hits due to the increased travel distance of the smoke.
2. Material
Material is another significant aspect; a glass bong offers purity and aesthetic appeal but demands careful handling, whereas silicone bong provides durability and is travel-friendly.
3. Types of Percs
The type of percolator is key! Whether you opt for a honeycomb, tree, or showerhead percolator, you'll notice a significant difference in the cleanliness and purity of your smoke.
Different designs provide varying levels of diffusion and drag, so think about which balance of smoothness and drag suits you best.
4. Brand
Like most accessories, look for trusted brands like Lookah that only make bongs from top-quality materials like glass and have excellent customer reviews.
5. Budget
Also, when thinking about your budget, consider how much you value durability, aesthetics, and the overall smoking experience.
Keep in mind that pricier options usually come with intricate designs that can enhance your smoking session but might need more maintenance.
