What to do if your Delta-8 THC Cartridge is Clogged

Your Delta-8 THC cartridge might get clogged from time to time, and this is perfectly normal. Delta-8 THC is an isomer of the hemp plant and is an extract. In other words, this means that Delta-8 THC, in its raw form, is a very thick, sticky substance. The good news is there are several simple solutions to prevent your Delta-8 THC cartridge from getting clogged.

Solutions For A Clogged Delta-8 THC Cartridge

Your cart or pod may be clogged for a couple of different reasons. First, it’s important to store your Delta-8 THC cartridge upright at all times. You’ll want to avoid leaving it in extreme temperatures like a hot car or a cold freezer. We recommend storing your Delta-8 THC Cartridge at room temperature.

The main reason your cart may be getting clogged is that when heat is applied, such as when vaping your cart, the Delta-8 becomes more viscous. In other words, it thins out to move through the cartridge system to create vapor. Every time you are not using your cart, the Delta-8 thickens up again, causing clogs.

Troubleshooting Delta-8 THC Cartridges

We understand that when a Delta-8 THC Cartridge gets clogged it can cause some frustration. You’ve paid good money for your product and now it doesn’t seem to be working. However, there are a couple of things you can do to troubleshoot your clogged Delta-8 THC Cartridge. If you are experiencing a clog, try taking a few puffs without pressing the fire button. Keep doing this until you hear/feel a “pop” which is the clog becoming unclogged.

If that does not work and your device has a pre-heat function, you’ll want to turn on that feature. It will cause the Delta-8 THC to warm up within the cartridge. This will make it viscous enough to move about the cart and become useful again.

If your device doesn’t have a pre-heat function, you can press the fire button on your device without “sucking” a couple of times. You’ll want to keep repeating this process for about 1-3 seconds to warm up the Delta-8 THC inside your cartridge. If that still does not work, find a hairdryer and aim it at your cart to warm up the Delta-8 THC and get it moving again. You might have to do one or all of these steps a couple of times to get the clog removed, but just be patient and it should come unclogged.

If you are experiencing a clog within the mouthpiece of your cartridge, we recommend the same steps as above; however, be careful when sucking and hitting the fire button at the same time because if the mouthpiece does come unclogged during this process, there is a potential for a little hot Delta-8 THC on your lips or in your mouth. To keep this issue from happening, here is what we recommend. Every time you are done using your cartridge, get a Q-tip or a piece of paper towel and wipe out the inside of the mouthpiece as best you can so that the remnants of Delta 8-THC that made it up into the mouthpiece during use don’t re-solidify, causing a clog.

Clogged Disposable Vape Pens Solutions

If your Delta-8 THC Disposables are getting clogged please follow the same methods as the Delta-8 THC cartridges. This includes:

• Store your pen upright
• Avoid extreme temperatures
• Try taking a couple of puffs until it hits
• Warm up the Disposable using a hair dryer
• Wipe the mouthpiece with a Q-tip or paper towel

It’s important to note that the Delta-8 or Delta-10 THC inside the device is a thick substance that can clog from time to time. Try following these methods before you decide to throw out your pen. Note that our disposables are non-refillable so you will want to avoid opening them up. Doing so may cause the device to fail if it’s been modified or tampered with.

Conclusion

These solutions can apply to other types of products that include CBD Cartridges, and Marijuana Cartridges. The reason this happens is that the Delta-8 THC inside the cartridge is very thick and sticky. Therefore, if not properly stored or handled it can cause it to stop releasing vapor. Before you throw away your cartridge we recommend trying these solutions first. Also, you can always reach out to our team if you are experiencing any issues with our products.
