We bought our gear a long time ago and it is made by US Divers. Do you know if they are still in business or if you can get parts. I guess maybe we need to just break down and buy new gear..
Thanks

Not sure why this is in the DSS forum, but AquaLung (US Divers) is still a going concern.

Yes, US DIVERS is still in business....

It is called Aqualung now to reflect it's historical and worldly presence and not be mistaken for a United States Company.

My regulators were made in the early 1990's (I think). US Divers Conshelf SE 3. I have no trouble getting them serviced and see no reason to replace them.

Good Luck!

Pretty much any of the USD/AL diaphram first stages use the same parts so parts for them are fairly easy to find and the second stages are pretty much generic as well. Even some of the older discontinued regs like the Aquarius can be repaired, there are a few aftermarket parts around for them. A little harder to find and your LDS is not likely to want to use them but the parts are available.
