Where to find gas blender certification?

[tplyons]

Hi all,

I've begun helping out at the local shop that I am working on my Divemaster certification through.

I've been doing air fills for a bit but cannot do Nitrox fills as I'm not a certified gas blender.

PADI offers Gas Blender certifications through the Tec Rec program, but can I find the certification elsewhere?

Does anyone know a shop that offers gas blender certifications in Northern NJ? My local shop does not have a Gas Blender instructor.

Thanks!

The websites of the agencies should be able to find you a local instructor. I know tdi's website has that feature.

I did all my blending certs through TDI. Just go to the TDI website and find a local instructor

Dosil's in Middletown does PADI DSAT Gas blender. Tony is the instructor. They're a little ways down route 36 off exit 117 on the GSP. They have very flexible hours if you work the regular 9-5 grind. www.dosils.com

Thanks, I didn't even know those guys were down there! Right down the street from my college roommate so that could be two birds with one stone!

And they do FFM Distinctive Specialties as well... this could be good!

The Scuba Connection in Hillsborough can also do it.

So all 8 of the current DM Candidates were interested in the class (two of us are looking into tech diving in the future, and the rest just want to be able to blend their own Nitrox) so we were able to get a guest instructor in... ironically, from Blue Water Divers.

Thanks for the heads up!

I just ran through the book (class is in two weeks) and it's fascinating! Can't wait to get into the nitty gritty of blending!
