This course is perfect for the experienced diver that has a genuine interest in the various types of regulators and wants an in-depth exploration of scuba equipment.

What our students had to say. 

The hands-on disassembly, re-assembly, and adjustment were crucial to understanding all aspects of regulators, but especially the service technician’s perspective. You quickly realize just how much work goes into the annual service.

[I liked] getting a better understanding of all that happens when AirTech does a repair. Happy I was able to attend this class, Shane’s a great guy and very knowledgeable.

[I liked] the sharing of information around the room with a bunch of experienced divers connecting what we were learning to what we already know.

Intro Tech Course

a

Can I get a job as a regulator service technician after this?

Not necessarily. This course does not qualify you for any certifications. To become a regulator technician, you would need to go through a certification course with each manufacturer you wish to service and work for a store that is a dealer.

Can I service my own equipment after this?

No. Please do not open your regulator. If you ever have any issues with your regulator, even if you believe you know the solution, bring it to a certified technician. Many manufacturers will not follow through with warranties due to non-certified interference.

How do I give feedback after the class?

Our online form is a great way to provide feedback! We greatly appreciate all feedback we receive. It will help us improve the course for future students.

Is there anything I can or should do to prepare for the course?

We recommend buying and reading through Regulator Savvy from Scuba Tools. However, this is not a requirement. For more information on the book, please visit their site.

What information should I expect to learn?

The course is designed to give you a strong working knowledge of the basic theory and application of regulators and the introduction to common scuba, special application, diagnostic, and tuning tools. This includes: a typical service procedure, the breakdown of typical parts, types of first and second-stage regulators, diagnostic measurements, and typical sounds heard when testing equipment.
The course is followed by hands-on disassembly and assembly of different types of regulators, as well as a demonstration on testing and fine-tuning a regulator.
