Equipment
​Servicing

Why should I service?

Would you drive your car, without an MOT and regular servicing, well the majority of us would not, so why expect your diving equipment to work if you do not take good care of it, not forgetting the legal requirements.
Picture
Computers
We are an approved Suunto Advanced Computer Watch (ACW) Centre, which means we can repair and perform battery changes on the complete range past (subject to service kits being still supplied by Suunto) and present of Suunto dive computers, with onsite trained service technicians and a full set of fully branded Suunto Battery and Service kits.

For non dive computers, there is only one location you can get those serviced in the UK and they can be contacted on 020 360 805 34

In addition to other manufacturers such as Hollis, Mares, Oceanic and Zeagle
​
​At Dive Rutland we provide a battery replacement service for all user replaceable battery computers and back our work up with a 1 month guarantee as long as the anti tamper paint is still intact.  All computers are subjected to a pressure test as part of the battery replacement service

Cylinders 
Diving Cylinders are required to be Hydrostatically Tested (Pressure Test) every 5 years with an incremental visual inspection every alternative 5 years.  Therefore your cylinder should be tested every 2.5 years alternating between the two tests.  Cylinder tests now include a valve service as part of the test process.
​
Cylinders used for surface use i.e. Airguns and Paintball Cylinders need to be tested every 5 years.  
Diving Cylinders for use with Nitrox, Trimix or oxygen require to be Oxygen Cleaned annually.

We offer a complete Cylinder Testing and Servicing service via our off-site service technicians.  Not only useful for Divers but also for Airgun and Paintball Gun owners.  

We also offer competitive prices for Oxygen cleaning and other cylinder and valve services such as shot blasts and repainting.

Regulators
Should be serviced annually (or in accordance with the manufacturers instructions)

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.

Picture
DrySuits and WetSuits
Our on and off-site technicians can undertake just about any type of suit repair on both Dry Suits and Wetsuits. Typically, this work will be completed in a week.

Buoyancy Control Device (BCD)
Manufacturer's leaflets all advise that BCD's should be serviced regularly.  A service will cover the following:
1) Checking pull cord, straps and cam band for damage or fraying
2) Checking buckles for cracking and wear
3) Service inflator and direct hose feed quick release connector - using manufacturers recommended service kit
4) Cleaning or replacement of the direct feed probe and its filter
5) Cleaning the over pressure and dump valves, replacing seals as necessary

Time to Service

Our in house servicing team are ready and waiting to help with all our dive equipment servicing needs.  We try and make servicing your dive equipment as quick and as hassle-free for you as possible.

Equipment can be dropped off at the Dive Centre or we can arrange for a courier collection or you can send it to us using your preferred delivery method. Can't pick it up? No problem, we can also courier it back to you too. 

​If you have a question just give us a call or send us a message.
We service all major brands of regulators, BCDs, cylinders and dive computers with all work carried out in accordance with the BSI standards and offered with a 3-month guarantee on work and parts replaced. An average turn around on servicing diving regulators is 7-10 days depending on availability of parts for the servicing. An express regulator service option is also available if time is tight before a trip, please call us for details on the express service option.

​We can even arrange a regulator loan if you can't be out of the water for a week for no extra cost.

Replacement of batteries for dive computers are carried out in-store with the option of the same day service.
