Equipment Servicing

Manufacturer's guidelines generally recommend that regulators, BCDs etc. are serviced every year... (so when exactly did you last get your scuba gear serviced?!).

If equipment isn't maintained properly then obviously problems can arise:

• salt water can cause corrosion,
• a build up of sand, gravel or salt crystals can result in free flowing regs or faulty dump valves,
• o-rings and other seals stretch or become brittle over time,
• moving parts wear after repeated use,
• batteries need replacing,
• things just don't work quite as reliably as they should...

Extreme Marine has over 14 years' experience as an authorised service centre for many of the largest scuba equipment manufacturers in the world, including Sherwood, Beuchat, Mares, Atomic, Oceanic, Cressi-sub, Suunto, Apeks, Sea&Sea, Typhoon, Citizen and Sea Doo. We carry out servicing and repair work in our own on-site workshop, using only the manufacturers' genuine parts and approved service kits.
