Ocean Turtle Servicing

Equipment Maintenance

It’s vitally important to take great care of all your scuba diving gear. Always follow manufacturers’ recommendations in terms of care and servicing, or ask us for advice if you are unsure. As an authorised dealer for several leading manufacturers, we can service a wide range of equipment including dive computers, cylinders, regulators, BCDs, wet and dry suit repairs and alterations and much more.

We are also able to provide Rental Equipment and Air Fills in addition to the servicing that we offer.

Our services

Regulators

Most manufacturers state an annual service for regulators, or every 300 dives, whichever comes first. If you bought them through us, or have had them serviced through us, our system will send you a reminder when they are due their next service.

Computers

We are an approved Suunto, Scubapro, Uwatec, Oceanic and Mares Advanced Computer Watch (ACW) Service Centre and can repair, service and perform battery changes on the complete range of Suunto dive computers.

Cylinders

There are strict IDEST guidelines for the care of diving cylinders, which can be found below, however as a general rule you need to have a hydro test every 5 years, and a visual test every 2 ½ years.

All tests now include valve services.

Cylinder Regulations

Interval Between Cylinder Tests

The period of 2 ½ yrs between visual tests is stated in the BS EN Standards to be the MAXIMUM interval.

If a cylinder due for a visual inspection is presented late, then it becomes due for a full test (Hydro).

Cylinder Valve Maintenance

From January 2007 a full service of the cylinder valve must be carried out at each 2 ½ year Inspection/Test in accordance with BS EN 14189 (this service is included in the cost of an 02 clean).

Testimonial

"Ocean Turtle Diving is an outstanding dive establishment and a credit to the dive industry. Led by a wonderful PADI Course Director Kerrie Eade and supported by a fantastic team who really know their stuff and give a great service. I would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone who wishes to learn how to dive and require advice for anything dive related. The shop is absolutely stunning and the service you get when required whether you’re doing a course or having your equipment serviced is very professional and if I might add, fun!
