What are HEETS?
HEETS are specially designed real tobacco sticks that are heated by your IQOS device – rather than burned like conventional cigarettes. HEETS are available in a range of nine expertly crafted variants which can be purchased online at vpz.co.uk and at all VPZ locations across the UK.
FAQs
How is IQOS different from e-cigarettes/vaping?
Both IQOS and E-Cigarettes are different from smoking as they do not burn anything. E-cigarettes create a vapour from a liquid containing nicotine while IQOS creates a vapour from a HEETS tobacco stick, which contain real tobacco.
How long does it take to use one HEETS tobacco stick? How many puffs?
Each HEETS tobacco stick can be used for up to six minutes or 14 puffs, whichever comes first. This is comparable with a standard cigarette.
How do I clean an IQOS device?
It’s easy. Once a day, remove the cap from the Holder, insert the supplied brush and give it a twist. If there’s any tobacco stuck in there, rotate the device and give it a gentle tap. After every 20th HEETS, do a deep clean, using the cleaning sticks.
What happens when I run out of tobacco sticks?
IQOS is designed to be used with HEETS tobacco sticks which are available in ten variants: Russet, Sienna, Teak, Amber, Yellow, Sienna Caps, Blue, Green, Turquoise and Mauve. HEETS can be purchased online at vpz.co.uk and at various VPZ locations across the UK.
