    Question O2 Cleaning Regs

    Does anybody know where I can get a reg set (Apeks DS4 + XTX 40 + SPG) ready for O2 service? How much would it cost? Is there a dive shop in Manila that offers O2 compatible air fills?


    Thanks in advance.

    Pao,

    Are you planning to use this reg for standard nitrox up to 40% or for higher O2 mixes for deco? Judging from your number of dives, I'd guess the former. If so, most regs do not need to be O2 cleaned for 40% or less O2 service.

    I'm about to do my AN/DP course and I'll be using it for deco gas. Have not been updating my profile :-).

    In that case, you'll probably be doing your deco on 50% O2 and will need O2 clean regs.
