it'd also be good to know if we'd have to take off the reg before bringing it. i got a tank i need rehydro'd as well
Ive read it in another post that you do need to take your reg off if your taking it to aqua tek
Try Firewatch Inc. in Leduc. (780) 986-2782
I know they do it. I think it's like $25
it is aqua tek SCUBA
16919 - 111 Ave. $25
Their are 2 stores with very similar names on the same block so make sure you go to the right store.
if anyoen needs there tank hydroed i may be able to drop it off at that place as its 5 mintues drive from my work.
thanks guys that would be nice to know what to do to get it all prped for it and can we do it before the hydro date or not just wondering not guna but just wondering and do the regs just spin off like a screw or somthing?
screws off man... or it should if not it will take a little effort btu will come off.
lol ty i am new at the compressed tanks
i think a strap wrench would do it. But i'll probably take mine to pag or something (if pag has time) Kinda dangerous to do it yourself i think. even if you have access to the proper tools.
danny i do it myself all the time lol not dngerous at all. well as long as all he airs outta the tank.
just heat the area where the reg meets the tank with a blow torch
use elbow grease
profit
All tanks have a 5/8 national fine threaded fitting. Best to remove reg befor taking it in, reduces any chance of damaging it. DO NOT heat the tank were the threads and reg screw together, too much heat will damage the tank, fibre-glasss/carbon fibre do burn. Any discoloration and the company can refuse to re-test due to damages.
Firewatch in Laduc does a fine job, very happy with thier work. If your tank is only a 3000# you could try Joey @ Ordo's Fire Supply on the Southside, if you are not in a hurry, sometimes he's realy busy.
So heres the deal ..
I have to take my tank to my boss and run the #'s to make sure it meets DOT exceptions ..
Also I was told aqua Tek only does the VISUAL not an actual HYDRO test ..
and for some reason this is acceptiable :{
Looks like our price will be the same or LOWER!
We remove and replace the Reg.
So I will find out all the details on monday depending on the Boss
Also hopeing to work with PAG on this for a drop off/ pick up arangement.
I'll keep ya posted

sweet sounds good
Don, I could grab your tank on the Nov long weekend and take your reg off at home and bring it back to you when I go back to Vermilion. Takes 2 secs when you set up for it.
Which tank are you talking about anyway? 45/4500??
