Why Rebreathers?
Longer Bottom Time
Imagine being able to safely dive to 100 feet for 60 minutes with no decompression time; or two, three, or four hour dives at shallower depths! Rebreathers reduce the nitrogen out of the air you breathe, significantly reducing your nitrogen loading that leads to decompression diving, longer surface intervals, or decompression sickness circumstances.
Silent Diving
On a closed-circuit rebreather your exhaled gas is not released into the water, which means no bubble noise or lots of little bubbles in that great photo you just took. Say goodbye to bubble noise which is annoying to you and the surrounding fish! Find yourself diving right in the middle of a school of fish instead of looking at them from a distance! Get up close and observe fish behavior without disturbing natural order.
Safety and Reliability
Diving on an Evolution or Inspiration rebreather offers greater safety over open-circuit diving for several reasons. The rebreather offers increased gas efficiency because it retains most or all of the exhaled breath, processes it, and returns it to the diver. With no exhaled bubbles there is no change in gas usage at greater depths, safely allowing the diver a longer underwater experience. In addition, the rebreather maintains the concentration of oxygen in the breathing gas at its maximum safe value throughout the dive. This allows you to stay longer at depth without incurring a decompression obligation or speeds up the decompression requirement whenever the situation occurs.
