Default Bargain Air Compressor for Hookah Dive Rig



Uhhh, has anyone stoped to ask how clean the air is youre breathing as
in Have you sent off an air sample?

Now I may not be the one to be posting on this topic cause Im sure
yall kno a lot more than I do about this sorta stuff. Lets see:
sport scuba age 12. re-cert about every 10-15 years for the fun of it.
6 month commercial dive school 198X (DIT)
Im also an current licensed Hyperbaric Life support Tech too. Its
always handy to know how to operate a recompression chamber and be
able to treat presure related injuries.
3 years GOM oilfild diver
5 years harbor diving
1 year Fiji commercial free dive spear fishery
Recently 1.5 years as AB on a 4 point dive boat for the the number one
dive company in US.

Diver air supply hoses (and other components) are made with specific
materials to not off gas bad **** when under preasure. Plastic does
wierd **** when put under preasure or heat. Unless specifically labled
as Diver Air Supply its a crap shoot. IDK Im jsut some dick. Besides I
also buy organic vegies too but I guess for tuff guys like Joe and
Skip organic petro chemicals in thier lungs dont matter much. As like
every dum coon ass says, "hehl braa were all gona die som time. what
ya gona do walk around wrapped up in bubble wrap all ur life! "

Equally you should also consider the air system's components: washers/
o rings, never sieze/lube on those quick disconnects, hose lube used
by chineese hose manufacture. You do remember to blow down your hose
before and after every use. Do you cap off each end of your house.
There are some nice red plastice "hose caps No. 6 & 8" but duct tape
works well keeping spiders and crap from finding its way into your
hose. Ya wouldnt want some spider in ur hose to foul that demad stage
regulator when ya got ur hosev fould on the prop preventing you from
escaping the dark grasp of Neptune Rex. Not to mention the
complontents in those ****ty little paint/utility compressors. It jsut
aint about "oil less" Id rather breath off a good Quincy (oil)
compressor than any of those chineses "oil less" comprssors you guys
are using.
Just think chinees dog food, baby formula, the lead in coffee cup
glaze, and children's toy paint.

Good luck boys and breath safely!

Bob
