Was at Lake Rawlings diving today.
I asked about this directly without making any accusations or insinuations was told very honestly and directly about an issue with a compressor last year (2010) and when it was discovered, it was isolated and corrected and all associated lines and bank cylinders were inspected and cleaned. I asked about current Air Test Documentation and was immediately given a golf cart ride (round-trip) up the hill to the Dive Shack and shown it (Grade E Air) . It stated at bottom something to the effect of "meets all the specifications of".
The Compressor Maintenance Logs were also prominently on display too. I did not ask to look at but can only assume they would have been happy to show them to me.
I found the Staff in the Dive Shack at the time (Kevin , Dalelynn and Errol) quite willing to talk to me about their compressors, the previous issue and their maintenance and Inspection results.
I would encourage anyone with questions to discuss it with Lake Rawlings staff directly and promptly.
In hind-site, I failed to ask specifically about Grade "E" "Oxygen-Compatible" reduced maximum acceptable carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon and particulate levels.
I can not speak to that with any authority but I am going to ask the about it in next day or two.
Having personally addressed the concern directly with Lake Rawlings, specifically with Errol Duplessis the President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board of Lake Rawlings and having received a very candid response, would it be possible to disclose the name of the shop that has allegedly forbidden its tanks to be filled at Lake Rawlings?
I do not even fault a shop for making ANY such decision about who and where their tanks can be filled but I have certainly seen MANY shops near and far that have their rental tank fleet filled pretty regularly there! This may just be a case of OLD News?
