The principle of closed circuit rebreathers has been around since 1881 but it is only recently that they have become part of mainstream diving. A closed circuit rebreather works on the principle that we can recycle exhaled gas instead of venting it into the water as with conventional scuba. The Inspiration was introduced in 1997 and was the worlds first mass-produced closed circuit rebreather designed for the recreational diver.

The objectives of the course are to train divers in the benefits, hazards and proper procedures for diving on the Inspiration or Evolution closed circuit rebreather. You will develop rebreather diving skills appropriate to diving to 40 meters.

Upon completion of the course divers are certified to dive to 40 meters on the Inspiration with a normoxic oxygen diluent content.
