Nitrox

Nitrox is purchased During boarding

Divers wanting to use Nitrox must purchase the flat rate that matches the length of the entire trip.

Purchasing Nitrox for only a portion of the trip, or on a per fill basis, is not available.

Our system

The Nuvair Nitrox System uses semi permeable membranes to produce O2 rich air (NITROX). The NITROX at up to 40% O2 can then be compressed for delivery to divers.

Low pressure air (200psi-300psi) is fed to the hollow membrane fibers. All the oxygen molecules pass through the hollow fiber walls but only some of the nitrogen molecules move through resulting in up to 40% nitrox! This oxygen rich air is then mixed with ambient air to get the Peace nitrox blend.

Diver Requirements

Divers should bring a current, legible, and valid Nitrox certification card from a recognized certification agency in order to get Nitrox fills. The Peace accepts Nitrox certifications from PADI, SSI, SEI, or NAUI. Digital or physical cards are accepted. Divers with certifications from other agencies should confirm in advance that their certifying agency is recognized/certified by WRSTC, and be prepared to show this information to the crew. Certification cards from certifying agencies that no longer exist may or may not be accepted on a case by case basis. To ensure divers are familiar with current industry best safety practices, the Peace recommends divers with older certifications to seek out a more current certification.

All certifying agencies require that divers analyze their own tank mix prior to diving. Due to the nature of the Peace’s NITROX system, no blend specifications are guaranteed. Peace NITROX blends typically vary from approximately 26% to 33%. A NITROX analyzer is normally provided by the PEACE. However, since the analyzer is freely available for passenger use, and must be properly adjusted by the user, the PEACE make no warranty as to the accuracy of results produced by the analyzer. NITROX divers are encouraged to use their own NITROX analyzers to test their own fills. Divers are ultimately responsible for knowing the mix of their breathing air, and safely diving within their certifying agency’s established limits.

Each tank to be filled with Nitrox must be identified with a Nitrox identification tag, which will be issued to you by the boat during the boarding process.

Tanks are not required to be Nitrox clean.

Pricing

There are flyers on board the boat with current purchase information and instructions. Purchasing Nitrox should only be done while on board the boat, as a part of the boarding process. You can either use your phone to complete the purchase, or the Peace has tablets available for use.

Please be aware that rate and accepted payment types for Nitrox have changed. Cash is no longer accepted for Nitrox. Credit card and PayPal are accepted.

Nitrox is only available on a flat rate basis. Divers must purchase the flat rate that matches the length of their entire trip. Purchasing Nitrox for only a portion of the trip, or on a per fill basis, is not available. Flat rate pricing for the day includes unlimited fills of the same tank, for the same diver, during that day.

The Nitrox flat rate - Single day trips $35 // 2 day trips $100 // 3 day trips $130 // 4 day trips $150

Divers must present a Nitrox purchase or confirmation email, and certification card, to the divemaster when you check in on the boat.
