1. Fill the vase so that the stem of the hookah is submerged
approximately one inch in the water. Using ice in the glass is very common; it makes the
smoking experience more cool and soothing. You can also try freezing your
glass by putting approximately an inch of water into the glass and putting
it into the freezer. |
 |
2. Place the metal argile on top of the vase. You should have a gasket
to help seal the two together making it air tight. |
 |
3. Place the tray over the top of the argile head. The tray will not fit
over most heads, so you'll need to place it on first. The opening for the
tray will usually be a bit wider than the neck of the argile. |
 |
This is what your hookah should look like. |
 |
4. Attach the hose gasket to the end of the hose. Place the end of the
hose with gasket into the hose opening of the argile. |

*Packing the bowl, takes a little practice to get it perfect.
5. Brake up the shisha so it sets lightly in the bowl. If it is packed
too dense, it will not allow smoke to be pulled through the head. Fill
the head to the rim of the bowl and no higher. If you over fill the head,
the shisha will become too packed when placing the foil or metal screen
over the top. |
 |
6. When placing foil over the top, get a square piece of foil that is
approximately 3 X 3 inches. |
 |
7. Place the foil over the top of the head like the picture shown on the
left. |
 |
8. Poke holes in the foil. A thumb tack or oyster fork works best. |

9. Lighting coals - If you have instant light Syrian coals or Japanese
silver square coals, a lighter will work. For Nour and The Lord Style coals,
use a stove or propane torch. You can find a propane torch at home improvement
store for around $20. Burn the coal all the way around so when you blow
on the coal, a red glow covers the entire piece. You can not directly apply
flame to the tobacco or use Kingsford BBQ charcoals for the head. A lot
of BBQ charcoal gives off too much carbon monoxide which can cause headaches
and even death. Use only hookah charcoals please. |
 |
10. Carefully place the charcoal on top of the hookah head so that
you don't drop ambers into the shisha.
*If the hookah smoke becomes harsh, you may have too many coals on the
head. Try removing a coal or breaking a coal into two to distribute heat
better. If the hookah is still smoking harsh, ambers may be in the shisha.
Remove coals and cover so that you can blow out ambers.
*If hookah starts to smoke too light, try dropping coals onto tray to
clear off ashes. Replace coals onto hookah head. If you have any further
