Hi Guys,
I dive with a manifoled twin set. As a newbie I was taught to open the taps on tanks fully then close half a turn.
When doing shut-downs with a twin set it would be far quicker to just have valves a couple of turns open. At the moment I just have the isolator valve open half a turn to bleed air between the tanks, allowing me to isolate quickly. Can anyone see any problems with only having the tank valves partly open as it doesn't seem to affect my regulator's preformance even at relitively large depths (40-50m)?
Cheers,
Nick
