Although it might look complicated, percolator bongs are very simple and can be used by anyone who enjoys good bong. The percolator is an additional water chamber found in the bong’s tube. This allows water to flow through the bong. It cools the cannabis smoke before inhaling it. This allows for a smoother and easier toke.
Percolator bongs can be a great choice if you want to enjoy a smooth inhale and maximize your cannabis intake. Although the percolator will not make you smoke higher than normal, it will give you a more enjoyable smoking experience that will allow you to continue smoking for longer.
Percolator bongs or percs are water-distributed bongs that take your cannabis experience to the next level. This doesn’t mean that you should throw away your college-style bong. However, it could be a good idea to take advantage of some of the newer glass designs. What makes a percolator bong different from a regular one? It all comes down to personal preference, budget and previous bong experience.
There are clearly advantages to upgrading from the traditional design to a more advanced one. Percolator bongs reduce the risk of contamination, decrease coughing, enhance the flavor of dry flowers and dabs — what you would call a bong-smoker’s dream.
You might also wonder what the difference is between a bong and a waterpipe. It’s simple – they are basically the same thing. Although technically, “water pipes” can also include bubblers, the term is most commonly used to describe bongs.
What is a percolator bong or water pipe?
Percolator bongs or water pipes use the process of percolation to encourage slowing down and obtaining creamier, more delicious hits. This design allows smoke to flow through holes or slits, before reaching the mouthpiece. The percolator component, which essentially presses bubbles into a separate chamber, purifies and cools the vapor. It sounds complicated, however.

Different types of percolators
Glass percolator bongs and water pipes come in a wide variety. These are some of the most popular designs that you will find online at headshops, with some exceptions.
- Diffused downstems: These are the most basic perc designs. They can be attached to the bong’s base or detachable. The pipe is thin and allows you to smoke by the narrow openings below the water.
- Disc: This is one of the most popular designs. Disc percs filter smoke using a circular, hole-studded disc. This category also includes honeycomb percs, which are known for their high diffusion rate from the many tiny holes. These types are closely related to the circ perc. It is a hockey pick-like with diffusion holes, but has slits.
- Swiss: Swiss percs can make the bong’s base look distorted, but these “swiss-cheese holes” actually cool the vapor around the vertical discs. Donut percs also push smoke into an “o-shaped” hole to enhance the bong’s aesthetic appeal.
- Turbine: Also known as cyclone percs or vortex percs this style creates an effervescent effect when the smoke is drawn up to your lips. Turbine percs can be stacked on top the honeycomb design.
- Tree: This perc follows a tree’s anatomy, pushing smoke through the central tube (trunk), before falling into attached, slitted tubes. Bongs often have triple or double-tree percs.
- Showerhead: This showerhead is similar to the one found in your bathroom, but inside your bong. The smoke is pushed up into a round chamber, then it goes down through the holes/slits.
- Inline/Matrix Percs: An inline perc is a horizontal, slitted tube that extends from the base. Sometimes, it’s welded inside. With its submarine-like design, this style is not your regular bong design. Another wow-factor style is the matrix perc. It whips up a frenzy with bubbles and smoke over a circular matrix. You can create an amazing “dancing” effect with the horizontal and vertical slits.
