HITTN 8-ARM TREE & PYRAMID DOUBLE PERC BEAKER BONG

What Specs Create A Smoother Experience?

Every part of this bong from Hittn helps improve your session. The mix of percolator styles, joint size, and overall design creates a better performance you can feel with every draw. Here is how its key features give you real-world benefits.

This bong’s 12.5-inch borosilicate glass frame is full of useful, user-friendly features.

• The dual-perc system offers double the smoke diffusion.
• Its 12.5-inch height is a good balance between performance and practicality.
• A standard 14mm joint makes finding replacement bowls or upgrades easy.
• The beaker design provides a low center of gravity for better stability.

How Does The 8-Arm Tree Perc Work?

The top percolator is an 8-arm tree perc. As smoke rises, it's forced through a central trunk and split into eight individual "arms." Each arm has small slits at the bottom that diffuse the smoke into a thick cloud of small bubbles. This process dramatically increases the smoke's contact with water, providing powerful filtration and cooling.

What Does The Bottom Pyramid Perc Do?

The first stage of filtration happens in the pyramid perc at the base. This sturdy, geometric perc has several angled holes that start the diffusion process as soon as smoke enters the main chamber. It provides a strong, bubbling action that breaks up the smoke stream, preparing it for the second filtration stage in the tree perc above.

Why Choose A Beaker Base Design?

The beaker base is a functional advantage, not just a style choice. Its wide footprint creates a low center of gravity, which makes the bong much more stable than a straight tube of the same height. This design also holds more water, which helps with filtration and allows for longer pulls without the water level changing too much.

Each percolator and the beaker shape work together to create a stable, high-performance water pipe.

• The 8-arm tree perc splits smoke into many small bubbles for fine filtering.
• The pyramid perc provides the initial, powerful diffusion in the base.
• A beaker base is wider and more stable, which reduces the risk of spills.
• This combination of percolator styles is designed to minimize harshness.

Is This Bong Good For Daily Use At Home?

Yes, absolutely. Its combination of powerful filtration, a stable base, and an ice catcher makes it an excellent choice for daily home sessions. The borosilicate glass construction is durable enough for regular use, while the dual-perc system provides a level of smoothness many people look for in a primary piece. Just be ready for a slightly more involved cleaning process to keep it performing at its best.

How Do I Set Up My Bong For The First Time?

Getting the water levels right is the key to unlocking the performance of a double perc bong. Too little water means less filtration, while too much can cause unwanted splashback and a heavy, restricted draw.

6 Steps To A Perfect Session

1. Fill the Base: Pour fresh, cool water through the mouthpiece until the pyramid perc is fully submerged by about half an inch.
2. Fill the Top Perc: Keep adding water until the slits on the 8-arm tree perc are also submerged.
3. Test the Draw: Without a bowl, take a gentle pull. You should see bubbling in both chambers. If water splashes your lips, pour a little out.
4. Add Ice: Carefully drop a few ice cubes into the neck so they rest on the ice pinch.
5. Load the Bowl: Pack your 14mm male bowl with your choice of dry herb.
6. Enjoy and Clear: Light the bowl and inhale steadily to fill the chambers, then pull the bowl to clear the smoke.

Proper water levels and a quick draw-test are the secrets to a perfect double perc experience.

• Ensure all percolator slits are submerged in water for them to function correctly.
• Test your water level before adding a bowl to prevent any splashing.
• The ice pinch is the final step for achieving the coolest possible smoke.
• A steady, even inhalation provides the best results.

What Are The Other Bong Options Under $100?

The Hittn Double Perc offers incredible filtration, but it's one of many great choices in this price range. Depending on if you prefer simplicity, a different diffusion style, or portability, there are other bongs worth considering.

While this Hittn bong excels at filtration, other options may offer benefits like easier cleaning or lower drag.

• Double perc bongs offer the most filtration but are harder to clean.
• Classic beakers are the easiest to maintain and are very durable.
• Honeycomb percs provide good diffusion with less draw resistance.
• Your ideal bong depends on your personal priority: smoothness, ease of use, or flavor.

How Do I Clean A Double Perc System Effectively?

Cleaning a double perc bong takes a bit more effort, but it's vital for maintaining top performance and flavor. Daily rinsing helps, but we recommend a weekly deep clean. The key is to make sure your cleaning solution gets into both chambers.

For a full clean, use a mixture of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt. Plug the openings and shake it vigorously to break up resin. You may need to shake the bong upside down and right-side up to get the solution moving through both percs. Rinse it thoroughly with warm water afterward and let it air dry completely.

Frequent rinsing and a weekly alcohol-and-salt cleaning will keep your dual percs working perfectly.

• Double percolators trap more residue and require more frequent cleaning.
• Use isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt for an effective deep clean.
• Plugging the openings allows you to shake the solution through both chambers.
• Rinsing with hot water after every session can significantly reduce buildup.

What Should I Know Before And After Each Session?

A few simple habits can protect your glass and improve your experience. Before you start, always double-check the water levels. After you are finished, a quick rinse can make a big difference in preventing long-term resin buildup.

• Before Use: Confirm joint sizes before attaching new accessories. Test your draw with fresh water to check for splashback. Consider using an ash catcher to keep the main chambers much cleaner.
• After Use: Empty the old water immediately. A quick rinse with hot water will flush out a surprising amount of loose residue. Place the bong in a safe, low-traffic area to dry and wait for its next use.

A simple routine of checking water before use and rinsing after use preserves flavor and function.

• An ash catcher is the single best tool for keeping a complex bong clean.
• Always empty and rinse your bong after a session to prevent staining.
• Confirming joint sizes prevents accidental damage to your glass.
• Store your glass in a safe spot away from edges and high-traffic areas.
