Airfills
Our air is regularly independently tested by New Zealand Underwater to ensure a high standard of air purity. By checking for harmful contaminants we are confident that the air you get is safe, dry and beautiful to breathe!
If you are a regular diver take advantage of the great savings to be made by pre-buying your fills. That way all you have to do is drop in your tank, we fill and you collect and dive! Available in 10 or 20 fills (these are a great gift!)
- Casual Single Fill $7.00
- 10 Fill Concession Card $50.00
- 20 Fill Concession Card $80.00
Scuba Cylinders

Regulator Servicing in Detail
Interested to know what a full regulator service involves? Here's what we do....
- The regulator is inspected by our technician to determine the cost of repair. This way we can contact the customer before proceeding if it looks like the regulator may exceed the value of a new one.
- The first stage of the regulator is disassembled.
- All metal parts are placed in the ultra sonic cleaner, with a mild acid solution for cleaning.
- All plastic/rubber and silicone parts are washed and then treated with a silicone spray.
- Metal parts are removed, washed in a neutralizing solution, dried, and then polished.
- All parts then go through an inspection process.
- The new parts are checked.
- The parts to be replaced vary depending on the manufacturer, but all O-rings and filters are replaced. The High Pressure Seat Diaphragm may also be replaced.
- The regulator is then assembled.
- The second stages are then disassembled.
- All metal parts and hose fittings are placed in the ultra sonic cleaner.
- All plastic parts are washed and treated with silicone.
- All parts of the second stage are inspected.
- All new parts are inspected.
- The mouthpiece is inspected and inhalation and exhalation diaphragms are carefully checked.
- The body is checked for cracks.
- The second stages are assembled.
- The regulator is now tested on the flow bench.
- The first stage is adjusted to the manufacturer's spec on IP.
- The second stage is adjusted to the manufacturer's spec on breathing and exhaling resistance.
- A yellow service reminder sleeve is fitted to the hose of the primary regulator to show when regulator was serviced and to prompt the next service.
- Paperwork is filled out for the customer to show the test results and what was done.
- Paperwork is filled out for manufacturer's warranty.
- If your regulator is not under warranty, all parts replaced will be returned to you. If your regulator is under warranty, all warranted parts will be replaced and returned to the manufacturer at no cost to you.
- When your equipment is returned to you, all you need to do is add air, water, and fun!
Equipment Service Policy
- Manufacturer's Recommended Parts: We use manufacturer's recommended parts and service kits wherever possible. This ensures that we are protected and that you, the customer is also protected. While this may not make us the cheapest scuba diving servicing engineers around it does provide you with peace of mind. In order to maintain your regulators warranty we must use the specified genuine replacement parts.
- 3 Month Guarantee: All our servicing is guaranteed for 3 months from the date of service. If it goes wrong within that time through normal diving activities, bring it back to us and we will service it again free of charge. Please note that the high pressure seat in first stage reducing valves need a short time to bed in. While we try to alleviate this by working the regulator (achieved by lightly pressing the purge button a number of times) on completion of the service, you may experience a slight free flow when the regulator is first used. This is normal and will disappear with time after the regulator has been used a few times.
- Collection and Payment: Upon completion of Service you will be notified that your regulator is ready for collection. All service charges must be paid in full prior to taking the regulator. Regulators not collected with 3 months may be sold to recover costs.
