Maybe you've tried to get answers from your family and friends, only to find out that very few people know this little detail.
Well, we have a well-written article for you.
This article not only answers your questions about Carb Hole.
Now let’s turn the pages of this article and start a journey of knowledge!
What is a kick hole?
A carb hole, also known by various names such as shot hole, carburetor, choke or rush hole, is typically a small opening found on glass pipes and some glass water bongs. Its primary function is to vent smoke out of the chamber.
What is the purpose of a kick hole?
When using a glass bong without a removable glass slider, the kick hole is usually used.
To use it, cover the carburetor hole with your finger while the chamber is
Smoke, then release your finger to inhale the smoke.
These holes are often located on the back or left side of the bong.
Bongs with kick holes tend to be cheaper than those with a glass-on-glass mechanism.
This cost difference occurs because making glass-on-glass bongs requires more complex craftsmanship.
In addition, bongs with extendable sliders and no kick hole are known to deliver stronger hits.
Nevertheless, water bongs with an integrated kick hole remain a popular choice among users.
Why is a bong called “carb”?
A carb is a small hole on the left or right side of your pipe or bubbler that can be easily covered and released with your thumb while smoking.
The term “carb” is the short form of the word “carburetor”, which is a crucial
Part of the car engine that mixes fuel and air.
For this reason, it is also called a carburetor on a pipe because it works in a similar way to a car engine.
Is a kick hole necessary?
The hole is called a carburetor or carb. It improves airflow and efficiency, providing better draws than is possible with a careless part.
Additionally, you can more effectively control the size of your hit or add air to your hit by lifting and returning your thumb to the bottom as you inhale.
In short, it offers the smoker more control.
Can the kick hole be covered?
On a bong, the “carburetor hole” is designed to allow the user to control the airflow.
While you smoke, you can cover the carb hole with your finger. This will prevent air from entering the bong and smoke from accumulating in the bong's chamber.
When you remove the cover, fresh air quickly flows in, pushing the smoke upwards so you can inhale the accumulated smoke.
Here are some tips for covering your carbon hole:
1. CONTROLLED SMOKE
The covered charcoal hole allows you to control the inhalation of the smoke so that it collects inside the bong instead of being inhaled directly into your lungs.
2. Use tips
By covering and exposing the coal hole, a denser and more intense smoking experience is possible.
3. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
When smoking, you can cover the coal hole while inhaling and then quickly open it again to inhale the accumulated smoke.
Check and clean the carbon hole regularly to ensure smooth airflow and avoid clogging.
How to use bongs with carb holes?
Using bongs with carb holes is very simple: you simply cover the carb hole with a finger while inhaling and remove the finger once the chamber is filled with smoke.
Since the head is usually sealed with a rubber grommet, you do not pull the head out, but only use the carburetor hole.
If the bong has a kick hole and an extendable bowl, it is up to you which style of smoking you prefer.

Covering the coal hole is an important technique when using a bong, allowing the user more flexibility and control over the smoking experience.
