Ash Catchers For Sale in Phoenix

When made by local artisans using local products, a glass water pipe can be a piece of art. A dirty glass water pipe, though, can be genuinely revolting. Of course, cleaning the water regularly will help, and is always recommended, but what if there was a way to help prevent the water and the pipe itself from becoming dirty? Enter the ash catcher.

Ash Catcher Basics

Ash catchers connect to your water pipe where the bowl does. Once attached, your bowl will move in and out of the ash catcher instead of directly into the water pipe. When you inhale smoke through the water pipe, the ash will be caught in the ash catcher, preventing it from entering the water.

When using an ash catcher, it’s essential not to add too much water to your pipe, as high water levels may cause some to enter the catcher. This, of course, defeats the purpose of the ash catcher. Some glass pipe users will secure the ash catcher with a K-clip, so the catcher isn’t removed when the bowl is.

The Benefits of Ash Catchers

If you’re someone who doesn’t clean out your glass water pipe regularly, or if you want a more pleasant smoking experience, an ash catcher is for you. As the ash catcher keeps ash and debris out of the pipe’s water, as well as your mouth and lungs, it reduces the need for a stringent cleaning cycle.

This means no smelly glass water pipe permeating a wave of noxious odor throughout the room in which it resides. It also means no added layer of anxiety if the water were to spill on your couch, rug, or chair, as the ash catcher should be keeping the source of the smells from interacting with the water.

Picking the Right Ash Catcher

Ash catchers aren’t typically sold with water pipes, so you’ll have to do a bit of research before selecting the right ash catcher for your glassware.  First, you’ll want to compare the joint size of your water pipe to that of your preferred ash catcher to ensure it’ll fit. If there isn’t a secure fit, the catcher may not function properly.

The majority of ash catchers come with 45- or 90-degree joints, which refers to the angle where your catcher connects to the water pipe. You should pick a joint that helps ensures the ash catcher won’t hit your water pipe.
