How often should my gear be serviced?
Most manufactures require annual service to maintain your warranty. Once you are in our database you will receive a friendly reminder when it is time for your Regulator, Computer, and BCD to be serviced. This insures that your gear is safe and ready for your diving pleasure.
Whereas we stock literally thousands of repair parts and manufacturer parts kits it is impossible to stock every part, for every model, ever made, so please get your gear to us well before your next dive adventure to insure that it will be ready for you in time.
We offer 3 levels of service:
#1. Standard Service – ( 3 week )
#2. Rush – ( 8 – 14 days ) – add $25
#3. Hyper Rush – ( 1 – 7 days ) – add $40
We also provide service for the following:
