Is your gear dive ready?

If you answer “Yes” to any question, it may be time to have your gear professionally serviced

General Use & Age

Scuba gear should be professionally serviced at least annually.
Why it matters: Rubber components degrade and internal parts wear over time, even without use.
Risk: Worn components can fail unexpectedly underwater.
Time to service: Yes – annual servicing is due.

Frequent use accelerates wear on internal parts.
Why it matters: Usage increases internal wear, salt buildup, and stress on components.
Risk: Gear may become unreliable mid-dive.
Time to service: Yes – heavy use justifies a check-up.

Dirt and salt can damage internal mechanisms.
Why it matters: Debris and salt cause corrosion, clog valves, and abrade seals.
Risk: Blockages or leaks may occur underwater.
Time to service: Yes – contaminants must be cleaned out professionally.

Poor storage encourages corrosion and mold.
Why it matters: Saltwater and moisture degrade components during storage.
Risk: Compromised gear might fail silently until it’s too late.
Time to service: Yes – improper storage always warrants a service.

First & Second Stage

Free-flowing regulators signal internal imbalance.
Why it matters: This often indicates a worn seat, sticking valve, or incorrect intermediate pressure.
Risk: Excessive air loss and inability to control breathing.
Time to service: Yes – requires adjustment and inspection.

Unusual taste may mean contamination.
Why it matters: Residue from mold, oil, or chemicals may be present.
Risk: Can lead to illness or breathing discomfort during dives.
Time to service: Yes – cleaning and sanitizing are essential.

Leaks often come from damaged O-rings or cracked fittings.
Why it matters: A hissing noise or visible bubbles are red flags.
Risk: Could cause full failure or rapid air loss.
Time to service: Yes – repair or replacement is needed.

Uneven airflow means the regulator isn’t performing properly.
Why it matters: Breathing should remain smooth at all depths.
Risk: Hard breathing causes panic or CO2 buildup.
Time to service: Yes – tune-up and inspection are critical.

Octo (Alternate Air Source)

Octos are often overlooked but equally critical.
Why it matters: A faulty octo may fail when needed in an emergency.
Risk: Inability to assist a buddy or use your alternate source.
Time to service: Yes – all second stages must be checked.

Unused gear can degrade silently.
Why it matters: O-rings dry out and internal corrosion may go unnoticed.
Risk: Octo might not deliver air in an emergency.
Time to service: Yes – testing and servicing are necessary.

Hoses

Visual hose damage is a serious sign.
Why it matters: Damaged hoses are prone to sudden failure.
Risk: Explosive air leaks, loss of pressure, or complete air shutdown.
Time to service: Yes – hoses should be replaced immediately

Hissing usually indicates a slow leak.
Why it matters: Small leaks can rapidly become large failures.
Risk: Progressive air loss and potential hose rupture.
Time to service: Yes – identify and correct the source of the leak.

Pressure Gauge

Gauge inaccuracy can mislead air monitoring.
Why it matters: You rely on it to know when to end the dive.
Risk: Running out of air due to a false reading.
Time to service: Yes – faulty gauges should be replaced or recalibrated.

Visibility issues often indicate moisture intrusion.
Why it matters: Foggy gauges are hard to read and may fail completely.
Risk: Inability to monitor tank pressure properly.
Time to service: Yes – servicing or replacement is recommended.

Fast air drops can mean a hidden leak.
Why it matters: Air leaks may go unnoticed until it’s too late.
Risk: Sudden air depletion underwater.
Time to service: Yes – investigate and repair the cause.
