Nardi Esprit Hookah — Italian-engineered surface-supply breathing air system from Nardi Compressori, one of Europe's most trusted breathing-air manufacturers. The Esprit is the compact end of Nardi's hookah range: a 3-litre-tank, oil-free compressor that delivers continuous low-pressure breathing air to operators working at or near the surface, with no cylinders to carry.

Select your Compressor Type above (Electric AC mains or Electric DC battery), then use the configurator on this page to choose the exact model and add optional hoses, fittings, and spare cartridges. The price updates as you configure.
