What are the statistics on CO related diver deaths?
This is very difficult to answer because no studies have been conducted. As one of the busiest air analysis labs in the US and Europe (analyzing samples sent from all around the world), we have seen dangerous levels of CO in approximately 0.1% of the breathing air specimens that we analyze. We would consider this very high. It is also noteworthy to say that not all cases of CO poisoning result in death. Many cases of diver nausea and illness may be occurring but blamed on other causes. Don’t let yourself become a statistic, use CO-Cop.
