Fill station pricing

diveshack runs an on-site fill station stocked for air, nitrox, and mixed gas blends. Pricing is per fill and applies to all cylinder sizes noted below. Stage cylinder fills are charged at the same rate as the main cylinder.

Gas 12 L fill 15 L fill
Air Free with any accompanied dive package Included · FOC
Nitrox (up to 32%) Enriched air nitrox, recreational blends €10 €13
Nitrox (33–40%) Higher oxygen fraction nitrox €13 €16
Stage cylinder fills (air / nitrox) Any aluminium stage, same rate as main cylinder Same rate Same rate
Helium (trimix blends) Charged per litre of helium in the final blend €0.10 / litre
Oxygen (blends over 40%) Applies to deco gases, oxygen 100%, and any mix above 40% O2 €0.025 / litre
Air fills are free of charge for accompanied dives. Nitrox is priced per cylinder. Helium and high-oxygen content are priced per litre used in the final blend, so a trimix or deco fill totals the base nitrox fill plus the helium and/or oxygen consumed. All fills are analysed before use. Bring your cylinder clean and in test.
Please note: diveshack does not supply gas fills or rental equipment to unaccompanied divers, irrespective of certification level. Fills and kit hire are available only to divers booked on a guided dive, course, or charter with us.
