At
Stirlings Dive Shop we are able to service most brands of dive gear
(with some personally imported or very old regs and BCD's we have
problems getting parts). The average turn around time is a couple of
days but if you have special requests or urgent work we are only too
happy to try. We also fill dive tanks while you wait. Stirlings is a
registered tank testing station, we can offer you quicker service on
visual or hydrostatic tests (often the same day or even while you
wait if you bring your tank in totally empty) with no handling or
courier fees added on.
Full hydro tests= $45 including fill
Visuals = $29 including fill.
A regulator tune up will set you back around $25 to $45 and a full
over haul around $55 plus parts which will vary hugely from brand to
brand.
A special note for people outside New Zealand. If you are thinking
of bringing in tanks from overseas, NZ has very strict regulations
on tanks that we are able to fill. If you e-mail us with the details
stamped on your tanks including a drawing of the little stamp
included in or near the date of manufacture we will do our best to
see if your tank is compliant with New Zealand regulations.
It can cost up to $175 to apply for clearance to use a tank in NZ.
Also tank valves need a burst disk. It may work out more economical
to hire tanks while visiting New Zealand, hire tanks are readily
accessible in most areas
